There are plenty of small tents you can buy, but the smallest one we’ve found is the ALPS Mountaineering Lynx 1-Person Backpacking Tent. It’s only 2’8″ x 7’6″ x 36″ and weighs only 3 pounds. It combines its small size with durable tent poles. If you’re hitting the trails on your own, this is one of the best ultralight backpacking tents you’ll find.
