camping tent

Outdoor sleeping shelter

A camping tent is a portable shelter made of fabric stretched over poles, designed to be set up outdoors for temporary sleeping accommodations.

The term distinguishes recreational tents from other types like circus tents or military tents.

Most camping tents are lightweight and pack into carrying bags: We pitched the camping tent near the lake.
