The patented Rainbow is the solo version of Tarptent's most popular shelter, the Double Rainbow, and includes the same special features. Tarptent has not encountered a solo shelter with more useable space on the market! It's a 1-person shelter.
An exceptional balance of strength, spaciousness, and value, the Rainbow is ideal for people who want a light tent with a large living space. The Rainbow is easy to setup, can be converted to freestanding with trekking poles, and can fit two standard width sleeping pads.
Updated for 2024 with sag-free sil-poly fabric. Please note that the sil-poly version may have discoloration of the arch sleeve.
Features:
- Made with 20D nano ripstop 100% silicone coated polyester rated to over 5,000mm hydrostatic head which does not sag when wet (Floor is 30D sil-nylon 66 5,000mm for durability)
- Premium materials and components: USA made Easton® arch poles and stakes, YKK zippers, Spectra® cording
- Fits wide sleeping pads up to 25" wide each
- Large and adjustable high and low venting options help minimize condensation while providing storm protection when needed
- Easy and fast 6 stake pitch, can be pitched in under 2 minutes
- Can be made freestanding with the use of two trekking poles*
- Catenary cut curves for taught stable pitching
- Pitches fly first to keep the interior dry when setting up or taking down in the rain
- Integrated interior pocket and clips for gear organization and storage

- “Porch mode” provides a large covered space in front of doors, perfect for cooking or staying out of the sun/rain
