Universal Wawona 3 Tent: 3 Person 3-Season

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:

"I love that the Universal Wawona 3 is actually designed with accessibility in mind. The low-threshold door makes getting in and out super easy, and the vestibule space is massive—I’ve used it to stash gear and even accommodate a friend’s mobility device. It’s the kind of tent that feels like it was made for everyone, and the pole setup is refreshingly intuitive."

We appreciate gear that considers everyone, and The North Face Universal Wawona 3 is a tent built from the ground up to welcome more people into the outdoors. With thoughtful, inclusive design details like a low-threshold entry, reflective accents, and a spacious layout, it’s easy to access, easy to live in, and easy to set up. Whether we’re sharing it with friends, a canine companion, or extra gear, the roomy vestibule and open interior give us the space and flexibility we need to feel comfortable in the wild.

The Wawona 3 uses durable 75D fabric with a non-PFC DWR coating for reliable weather protection, and the structure is supported by three interchangeable poles that slot easily into sleeves—no grommets, no guesswork. Inside, we’ve got space to fit three sleeping pads or two cots, while the vestibule can stash mobility devices, bikes, or bulky gear. There’s even a dog-leash loop at the back of the tent for added versatility. From national park road trips to backyard test runs, this tent makes the outdoors more welcoming for all of us.
