Tents lightweight backpacking, bikepacking, mountain and expedition tents
Our tents are tested for adventure the world over. Whether you need security and shelter from high mountain storms or lightweight refuge from the rugged forest floor, we have a tent to suit your next wander into the unknown. Our range of tents varies from one-person all the way up to shelter for groups of four.
Remember, the tent isn't the only thing you'll have to carry but it might be the most important. Thankfully, an Alpkit lightweight tent has all the protection you need from the outdoors without compromising on weight. Save your energy for the walk-in! Nobody likes to find the perfect tent spot only to realise the light is fading and you'll have to spend the next hour pitching in the dark.
