Approach Roof top tent medium

On cloud nine, right on top of your car.

The Thule Approach is a rooftop tent that makes adventure travel easier, more comfortable, and more fun. The tent maximizes interior space, offering a perfect spot to relax and enjoy a restful night’s sleep. For even more space, the tent is compatible with an annex or awning (sold separately). Designed for rugged off-the-grid adventures, this rooftop tent is also perfect for local explorations or weekend getaways with family and friends. Turn your vehicle into a second home and experience van life no matter what you drive—SUV, sedan, truck, or hatchback.

Quick setup for easy getaways

The Thule Approach is designed for ease of use. Innovative mounting brackets let you install the tent on your roof in just minutes—twice as fast as traditional rooftop tents. The mounting brackets also lock the tent securely to your roof rack for added safety. The Thule Approach is one of the fastest soft-shell rooftop tents to mount and remove on the market. Once you reach your destination, simply unzip the travel cover, unfold the base, and you’re ready to camp in under 3 minutes.

The Thule Approach will elevate your next adventure—literally—since you’ll be sleeping above the ground. Panoramic roof and wall windows bring you closer to nature than ever before! Extensively tested for durability and longevity, the Thule Approach is built to be ready for your next trip, wherever it may take you.
