1 Man Tents for Solo Backpackers & Hikers

For those solo adventures that help you get back to nature, we've got a range of 1 man tents that are perfect for backpacking or bikepacking.

One of our best one-person tents is the DD Hammocks Superlight Bikepacker Mesh Tent. This is an extremely lightweight tent, weighing less than 500g, with a highly effective bug-proof mesh. You can use this solo tent on its own in the summer or pair it with the DD Hammocks Superlight Bikepacker Tarp for extra protection and a combined pack weight of 1kg.

2 & 3 Person Tents for Group Adventures

If you're travelling with a companion or you want some extra room for your kit, our 2 and 3-person tent range is full of lightweight options.

The NatureHike Star-River 2 lightweight 2-person tent is the ultimate, all-season lightweight tent that's ideal for a two-person hiking adventure or to give you more room for your stuff if you’re heading out solo. It weighs only 2kg, including poles and pegs, making it great for travelling light. 

For the ultimate 2-3 person tent, we recommend the DD Hammocks Superlight Pyramid Tent - Family Size. This tent weighs in at only 750g and only needs a single hiking pole and ground pegs to pitch. Waterproof to 3000m, this tent is ideal for all weather conditions. Pair it with the DD Superlight Pyramid Mesh Tent for a bug-free zone.
