dome tent

Curved camping shelter

A dome tent is a camping shelter with flexible poles that cross over each other to create a rounded, self-supporting structure.

The design resists wind from any direction and stands without stakes, though stakes add stability.

Dome tents range from small backpacking models to large family shelters: We set up the dome tent in the backyard for the kids.
