Stormproof and Quick to Pitch
Like every Karsten Tent, the Lacerta is incredibly easy to set up — and once it’s up, it stays up. Built to withstand rough weather, it’ll keep you cosy and dry even in the middle of a downpour. There’s nothing more comforting than the soft sound of rain on cotton canvas.
With its contemporary design, the Lacerta fits perfectly into today’s camping trends. It offers more than 2 metres of standing height and 15 m² of living space, making it an ideal tent for four. Available in classic beige or light blue made from recycled jeans — because taste is personal, and sustainability matters!

Durable Cotton, Built to Last
The advantages of Bisonyl
The groundsheet is made from Bisonyl, a high-quality PVC material known for its durability and weather resistance. It’s fully waterproof and extremely resistant to tearing and wear — perfect for campers who use their tent regularly. Bisonyl is also easy to clean, helping you keep your setup in top condition.
Every Karsten Tent features premium 100% Ten Cate cotton, renowned for its breathability and durability. The special weave lets air flow through, reducing condensation and keeping your tent climate comfortable. When it rains, the cotton fibres swell to naturally seal the fabric — blocking every drop. It’s like magic in motion!
Cotton: woven to keep the rain out and let the air in.
Unique Feature: The Storage Wall
Need extra storage? We’ve thought of that too. The zip-in Storage Wall transforms your tent into an organised space. This tall, sturdy cupboard folds flat for easy transport and zips neatly into the Lacerta. Stack it with clothes, cookware, games, towels — you name it.
- Larte compartments for clothing, tableware, games and more
- Folds flat for easy packing
- Easily zips into place
