Trail Self Inflating Camping Mat With Pillow 2.5cm Thick Single Sleeping Pad With Bag (Blue)
Pros
- REST YOUR HEAD IN COMFORT: Sleep comfortably when you’re camping with this Self-Inflating Mat With Pillow from Trail Outdoor Leisure. Whereas most camping mats require you to bring a separate pillow, this mat has an integrated pillow, making it perfect for lightening your load when camping. When inflated, it measures L186cm x W53cm x D2.5cm (approx.).
- SELF-INFLATING FOR A SIMPLE SET UP: Because it’s a self-inflating mat, it does most of the inflating for you. Simply unroll the mat, open the quick flow self-inflation valve, and it automatically sucks in air. Once it’s finished, we recommend blowing in some extra air to ensure it’s inflated to your desired firmness. Please note that the pillow isn’t self-inflating.
- EXPANDING FOAM INTERIOR: The mat is filled with compressed ‘open cell’ foam. When the inflation valve is opened, the cells suck in air and the foam expands to 2.5cm thick. Firm but yielding, it provides sensational support whilst insulating you from the ground for greater warmth and comfort. Please note that the pillow is an air pillow and doesn’t contain any foam.
- WATER RESISTANT: The camping mat is made from durable 190T polyester to keep you protected from the damp ground. If the camping mat gets wet, simply wipe it with a dry cloth. If the camping mat gets dirty, simply wipe it with a damp cloth to clean it, before wiping it with a dry cloth to remove any excess moisture.
Cons
- No self-inflating pillow.

About this product
The Trail Outdoor Leisure Self-Inflating Camping Mat With Pillow offers a comfortable sleep solution for your next camping trip. This single sleeping pad combines a self-inflating mat with an integrated pillow to ensure you rest easy without needing to carry additional items. When fully inflated, the mat measures approximately 186cm in length by 53cm in width and reaches a thickness of 2.5cm. The open cell foam interior provides firm yet yielding support, keeping you warm and comfortable while insulating against cold ground.
This camping mat is designed for those who enjoy lighter packing but still want the luxury of a cushioned sleep surface. Its self-inflating mechanism means you can quickly set up your sleeping area without much fuss. Simply unroll the mat and open the quick flow valve to allow air to be sucked in, then add extra air if needed for comfort. The pillow is an air-filled design rather than foam-based.
The durable 190T polyester material ensures that the mat remains water-resistant, protecting you from damp ground conditions. If your mat gets wet or dirty during use, it can be easily cleaned with a dry cloth for immediate drying or a damp cloth followed by thorough drying to prevent moisture buildup. While convenient and comfortable, note that the pillow does not self-inflate, requiring manual addition of air.
This camping mat is perfect for solo adventurers or couples looking for a cozy yet practical sleeping solution during outdoor excursions.
