Lightweight backpacking tent

Wild camping is all about the back to basics camping experience of heading out solo or with a friend or canine companion and pitching your tent out in the wild for one night or more away from the hustle and bustle. For this type of camping, you need an ultralight tent that won’t weigh you down but is also tough enough to withstand the winds of the hills. At Decathlon, we stock a range of strong yet lightweight tents from our leading in-house brands, Forclas and Simond, ideal for those trips where you need to travel light. We have lightweight backing tents for one to four people that are quick and easy to pitch and comfortable and lightweight to carry.

Choose from our sem-geodesic designs that provide plenty of space and great stability. Alternatively, our Terra Nova Bothy Bags provide a lightweight and compact emergency shelter or perhaps our 2-person starter backpacking tents if you’re just beginning your outdoor adventures. Backpacking tents combine some of the most advanced tent technologies to give you a genuine back to basics camping experience. These lightweight tents are ideal for attaching to your backpack to carry them with ease as you head off into the wilderness for a night under the stars. If you’re worried about the durability of these lightweight tents, the good news is that they are just as hard wearing as any standard camping tent and can withstand whatever challenges it faces in the great outdoors. They are a great option for intrepid explorers, backpackers, cyclists, backcountry skiers and those taking part in Duke of Edinburgh Award expeditions who need to travel light.

If you’re looking for a way to relax during your next backpacking expedition, why not take a camping hammock? Camping hammocks are extremely lightweight and portable and will give you something comfortable to relax while taking a break from a long hike. You need two strong trees for your anchor points, and you’ve got the perfect outdoor lounger.

If you’re off on a backpacking trip or enjoying a long hike, keeping hydrated is very important. However, you may not always have access to a reliable and clean water supply. That’s why it’s a good idea to pack some water purification tablets in your backpack. They take just 10 minutes to dissolve, and in 2 hours, you’ll have water that’s clean and safe to drink. Our water purification tablets are so effective that they’ll even keep your water clean and save to drink for six months.

If you’re planning a backpacking trip, you probably won’t have much room to carry bulky food items in your backpack. But that doesn’t mean you have to go hungry. Decathlon has a great range of tasty dehydrated camping food in your backpack. All you need to do is boil it, and in a few minutes, you’ll have a delicious meal which could be anything from meatballs, pasta bolognese, fruit crumble or chocolate pudding.

Whether you’re off camping or heading on a backpacking trip, being an outdoor adventurer doesn’t mean you have to sacrifice your comfort. Camping and sleeping mats will give you something comfortable to lay on rather than the cold, hard ground. All you need to do is just roll up the mat and attach it to your backpack. If you're staying at a campsite, sleeping mats are great under air beds and sleeping bags for extra cushioning.
