Planning on doing an overnight or multi-day hike and need a lightweight tent that you can carry while hiking? In this article, I review and compare the best hiking tents Australia (aka backpacking tents), to help you figure out which one is right for you!
I include some options for those on a tight budget and some more expensive, ultra-lightweight tents under 2kg. I’m confident you’ll be able to find the right option for you on this list, regardless of your budget or requirements.
To keep things consistent, I have reviewed the 2 person (2P) size tents for each brand. However, they do come in other varieties (I list these at the end of each review).
Let’s get started with a quick comparison of each of tents that I will be looking at in this article!
