Marmot Limelight 3 Person Backpacking Tent
The largest capacity in its class
We embraced simplicity with the Limelight series: Quick to set-up and slight in weight, you can camp in style in this roomy home-away-from-home. The zone construction increases livable space, and a super-sized double door and rear D-shaped door lead to two side vestibules to keep all your gear dry in wet weather.
The characteristics of the Marmot Limelight:
|
|
|
|
---|---|---|---|
Secure it once and doneThe fly of the tent is made from 100% water-resistant polyester. Therefore, it doesn’t have to be retightened, once it has gotten wet. That ensures a high durability and a longer lifetime of the product. This fabric is so light that it can be carried in a backpack easily throughout longer tours. |
More living spaceThe innovative zone pre-bend construction creates vertical walls up to shoulder height for a roomier sleeping area and extra head room. Therefore, several people can sit comfortably and uprightly in the tent. |
Practical entrance and exitYou can enter the Marmot Limelight through a super-sized double door and a rear D-shaped door. This way it’s possible to enter and exit the tent without disturbing your friends or family. You can also use one of the vestibules over the doors to store cooking items dry and easily accessible. When not needed the doors can be stuffed completely into the interior pockets. |
Lights up the darknessThe slightly dimming lamp shade pocket at the roof of the tent securely holds a headlamp, providing ambient light without it getting in the way or blinding you. Ideal for reading, relaxing or sitting out the bad weather. |
Resists bad weather conditions
The seam-taped, catenary-cut floor prevents water from flowing into the tent, even if it’s standing on a slight incline. For an even better protection against dirt and wetness, a footprint to lay underneath is included.
Pleasant climate
Vents on the roof and sides of the tent enable good air circulation – no matter how the weather is outside. This reduces condensation inside the tent, and allows it to remain dry between the outer and inner layers.
Everything safely stored
Thanks to integrated pockets, small items can easily be stored. This allows you to reach them when needed instead of rummaging through your backpack or losing them in you sleeping bags.
Quick set-up
The set-up of the tent is done in minutes, thanks to strategic clip placement and colour coded “easy pitch” clips, poles and fly. The canopy just needs to be attached to the poles and the fly tightened above – done.

The Expert for Outdoor Apparel
In 1974, Marmot was founded by two University of California Santa Cruz students and mountain enthusiasts, Eric Reynolds and Dave Huntley, in Wyoming. They began producing prototypes of down products in their dorm room. Marmot has grown quite a bit since our humble beginnings in 1974, but one thing has never changed; our commitment to design the highest quality performance products.
Product Description
Bound to be your new favourite home away from home, the Limelight Tent embraces simplicity and straightforward design. Its vertical walls allow for plenty of sleeping space, plus the strategic clip placement provides more interior volume for stretching out. If rain clouds move in, color-coded “easy pitch” clips, poles, and fly make for an easy set-up, and the seam-taped, catenary-cut floor prevents pooling. Protect your investment by using the included footprint. One super-sized door offers easy access, while two vestibules hold all your camping gear. After an epic day of adventuring, tuck a headlamp into the lampshade pocket for ambient light at night.

I'm 6'1'' and hate being in a tent where my feet are pressed against one wall and my head against the other. Since most tents have sloping sidewalls, even if the tent is 7 1/2 feet long, it's usually not long enough for my feet to not rub against the wall. While I have no problem in cabin tents or 6 person tents, those are too heavy for backpacking and are limited to car camping only (unless you have a pack mule). At roughly 7 lbs with ground cloth and stakes, the Marmot Limelight 3P is at least twice as heavy as a high-end backpackers tent but is also less than 1/2 the weight of most cabin and 6 person tents. So far it's the best compromise I've found for being long enough to sleep in and light enough to carry a few miles.
While I wish it weighed a pound or two less, it's truly a pleasure to sleep in, especially if you're over 6 feet tall. It rained all night the last time I used it. Not a drop of water got it. Not even condensation. Even my sneakers in the vestibule stayed dry.
If you know if a lighter weight tent that sleeps 6 footers without rubbing head or feet against the tent wall, please leave a comment.

Je l'ai immédiatement montée dans une chambre chez moi, et je veux informer les futurs acheteurs de certaines précisions importantes concernant les données techniques fournies, qui sont toutes fausses, sauf la hauteur qui est presque conforme...
Le poids réel, tout compris, est de 3 485 grammes (et non 2 985 gr).
Les dimensions de la tente intérieure:
Longueur utile 216 cm (et non 229 cm)
Largeur utile 160 cm (et non 170 cm)
Hauteur utile maximale au centre 121 cm (= conforme) et 116 cm juste sous les entrées.
Le positif:
Grandes portes doubles.
Grandes et hautes absides.
Matériaux de qualité.
Le tapis de sol, épais, est fourni, ce qui est rarement le cas!
Le compromis entre le bas de la tente intérieure en tissu plein (ce qui évitera les courants d'air nocturnes au niveau du visage, forts désagréables) et le haut en moustiquaire pour une bonne ventilation est bien pensé.
Coutures étanchées
Le rapport qualité / prix est plutôt bon!
Le négatif:
Données techniques largement fausses, une honte...
Les cordelettes de haubanage ne sont pas réfléchissantes, une basse économie de la part de Marmot.
Cette tente vous conviendra en 3 places si vous utilisez des matelas en 51 cm de large, sinon elle sera royale pour deux.
Quant au poids, avec presque 3 500 gr, il faudra y réfléchir à deux fois pour la prendre en itinérance...
Es ligera y la tela interior es tipo mosquitera con lo que si quieres no poner la tela exterior puedes dormir viendo las estrellas siempre que no llueva claro.
Gran tienda.
