Weighing in at just 772 grammes, the Solar Ultra 2 is designed for mountain marathon events or short backpacking outings.

Ultra-lightweight campers can save even more weight by swapping the inner tent for a footprint, which covers the floor area and provides anchor points for the poles.

According to Terra Nova, the tent pitches in around five minutes and its self-supporting design ensures stability in poor weather or on ground that won’t take pegs securely.

Terra Nova’s Carolyn Budding said: “It is more than a decade since we launched the first sub-1kg tent which secured us a Guinness World Record for the lightest tent in the world.

“Now, the pioneering use of bonded seams in our ultra-light tents ensures durability and strength without adding weight. This two person tent is lighter than our original world-record breaking single-person model.”

The Solar Ultra 2 is available across the UK from Cotswold Outdoor and is sold worldwide through Terra Nova stockists. The Suggested Retail Price is £1,200.
