Nordisk Lofoten 2 ULW Tent

The award-winning Lofoten 2 ULW is a specialist ultralight tent. Designed for race days and minimalist backpacking, it weighs just 500 grams and has one of the world’s smallest pack sizes. Using Nordisk’s ULW Lite poles with ultra-short segments, the result is a tent that collapses down to about the size of a water bottle.

With one central pole, the streamlined Lofoten 2 is quick to pitch. At the foot of the tent, a small pole lifts the end to increase internal volume. A mesh panel on the inner door and two mesh vents keep air circulating to minimise condensation. The floorplan allows for two people sleeping in close proximity; solo users would find things more comfortable.

Keeping weight as low as possible, the Lofoten 2 does not have a vestibule. As such, it is best suited to camping scenarios where you have minimal kit. If you are backpacking or bikepacking, consider using a tarp to protect your gear.

To increase durability, use with the footprint – sold separately. The waterproof material protects against abrasion to help extend the lifespan of the tent floor.
