About this camper
With most 4WD campers, two rooftop tents provide sleeping accommodation for a maximum of four people. The Family 5 Berth also has two rooftop tents, but as the name suggests, this model can accommodate one additional person. This is possible because the front rooftop tent is 245 cm long. It is 132 cm wide, allowing three children to sleep in the front tent. Two sleep lengthways, while the third child sleeps across the rear of the tent. A Family 5 Berth can be supplied with a portable toilet and barbecue. A shower/toilet tent is included as standard. This is one of the few 4WD campers permitted on the Canning Stock Route. Please note: only during the months of May to September, and only when travelling with at least one other vehicle.
