Awnings & Accessories

Not need—but once you try one, you’ll never want to camp without it! Awnings give you instant shade, shelter from rain, and a more spacious outdoor living area. They’re especially useful in hot or wet climates, or when you’re spending time off-grid.

A fixed awning is permanently attached to the side of your van and rolls out when needed — fast, simple, and great for short stops. A drive-away awning is like a mini tent that connects to your van but can stay up when you drive away — perfect for basecamps and longer stays.

It depends on your van size and how much outdoor space you want. Measure the height of your van (for proper fit) and consider how much shade or shelter you need. Many brands list height ranges and size guides, so be sure to check before you buy.
