Ultralight, All-Season Tents. Trusted by Mountaineers, Loved by Wild Campers.

With a heritage rooted in expedition-grade mountain tents, Terra Nova has been trusted by explorers for over 40 years. From the legendary Quasar to the record-breaking Laser Ultra 1, our reputation for innovation is built on testing gear in the world’s harshest environments.

Whether you’re pushing for a summit or fastpacking a national trail, our gear is engineered to go further, weigh less, and perform when it matters most.
