Portal 3P Ultralight Backpacking Tent

About the Slingfin Portal 3P

The Slingfin Portal 3 tent combines an ultralight, compact design with vertical headroom and Slingfin’s innovative OutRigger system to deliver a tent worthy of praise across the outdoor industry.

Optimised to handle harsh weather conditions, the Portal 3 incorporates technologies from Slingfin’s Expedition Series shelters to deliver a sub 4lb tent (trail weight) with a degree of stability and weather resistance previously reserved for dedicated ‘four-season’ tents.

A spreader bar in the roof adds structural stability and lifts the flysheet from the inner while providing rain cover to the entrances. The innovative OutRigger design lets you attach your trekking poles as additional uprights for further stability against harsh winds or snow loading.

Pre-installed internal guylines can also be utilised to give the Portal incredible lateral stability for almost no weight penalty. This lets you tension the tent without venturing outside in poor weather.

The freestanding dome is easy to pitch with room enough for three people with sleeping pads and kit. The high-volume pole structure with a swivel provides well-distributed headroom without the weakness of hubs. Dual doors offer hassle-free access for both occupants with a vestibule on either side for added storage. The Portal’s inner 15D nylon no-see-um mesh fabric is great for camping in warmer climates, aiding moisture management and protecting against bugs.

Slingfin ensures only the finest grade fabrics and materials are used in their tents. An ultralight yet tough 10D nylon 66 ripstop flysheet optimises pack weight and features a silicone treatment front and back to deliver reliable and long-lasting rain, mildew and UV protection. Double-needle lap-felled seams on the fly do not require seam sealing or tape. The floor is fully taped 20D nylon ripstop with PE treatment to 1800mm HH. Poles are high-quality DAC Featherlite NFL.

The Portal 3 tent combines a spacious interior and low pack weight with a highly-stable design and premium fabrics to deliver a capable tree-line tent that’s perfect for a range of 3-season adventures from wild camping and trekking to fast and light alpine climbing and more!
