The Solar Photon 2 is one of the lightest two-person self-supporting tents available. Designed with stability in mind, with front and rear fly hoods for great ventilation, the tent is ideal for shorter trips where low weight is paramount.
The Solar Photon 2 tent is an extremely lightweight 2-person self-supporting tent, making it ideal for backpacking where minimum weight is paramount.
Note: Due to the super-light nature of the material used in the construction of the tent, we are unable to factory seal the seams in a conventional method. However, they are positioned and sewn in a way that minimises water penetration. It’s possible to add further protection yourself, with a seam sealer, to fully waterproof the tent.
Seconds: Products appearing with this grade are cosmetic seconds only. We do not offer any products with faults that may affect their performance or function. Typically these faults are stitching faults (such as incorrect embroidery), incorrect fabric colours or dye migration. Seconds are not graded as they will not have been used.
Grade A: Items that have been used will be given a grade that reflects their general appearance and the amount of wear they show. Grade A items will not have been used outdoors but may show some signs of indoor use such as creasing or scuff marks.
Grade B: There will be signs of use and the item may have been used outdoors, but if so only for short periods of no more than a few days. Sleeping bags will not have been slept in. Tents may have been pitched in the wet, in which case they will be dried and packed correctly before entering the stock. Grade B items may have had minor repairs, however, the repair will not affect the performance of the product. As a repair would be specific to an individual tent, it is not possible to list these in the product description.

There’s a reason red tents have stood the test of time in mountaineering. High on a snow-covered ridge or deep in a storm, red cuts through the grey. It`s not just about looking bold – it`s about being seen when it counts.
✅ High visibility for search & rescue
✅ Easy to spot in fog or white-outs
✅ A boost of colour when morale dips
✅ A true classic in the wild
Got a retro Terra Nova or Wild Country tent in your kit history? Drop us a photo!

Team Terra Nova is sending huge `Congratulations` to our long-time expedition ambassador, friend, and supporter @nigelvardy for the release of `Frost Bitten` on Amazon Prime!
We had the pleasure of attending the premiere a couple of months ago, and can confirm it`s one to watch this weekend.
Here`s an update from Nigel on his latest adventures in Norway...
`I`m safely home from Norway, and everyone loved the Solar Horizon 2 (pictured). There was even another one on the trip..! The Footprint is an amazing piece of kit. It really keeps things dry and mitigates any ground damage as you enter and leave the tent.`
