View description
The Olpro Solo is a one person trekking and wild camping tent for walkers, cyclists, wild campers and motorcyclists who carry their shelter with them. Olpro built it for ease of use and comfort, and the entire tent weighs 1.8kg, packing down to 45 x 10 x 10cm.

Inside there is a 1 berth bedroom inner tent with a zip door and a fly mesh panel, set over a sewn-in groundsheet. The zip door shuts the inner off, and the fly mesh panel lets air in and keeps flies out. The outer flysheet design is built for pitching in bad weather: it keeps the inner tent dry while you get set up, which is what you want after a wet day on foot or on the bike.

The flysheet is waterproof ripstop polyester with a 5,000mm hydrostatic head, which on Olpro's scale means it holds back the pressure of 5 metres of water before anything leaks through. Lightweight alloy poles hold it up and keep the weight down. Olpro makes it in green, size X-Small, and as a tent it is covered by Olpro's Product Lifetime Warranty as soon as you register it with Olpro inside 30 days of buying.

Two people walking together pick the Olpro Beckford, the 2 man tent from Olpro's lightweight collection. The Solo is for anybody walking, cycling or riding alone who has their shelter with them, and at 1.8kg it is the lighter load on the rear or the bike.

Is the Olpro Solo light enough to carry on foot or by bike?


Yes. The Solo weighs 1.8 kg and packs down to 45 x 10 x 10cm, and Olpro built it for walkers, cyclists, wild campers and motorcyclists. Lightweight alloy poles hold it up, and a 5,000mm ripstop polyester flysheet over a sewn-in groundsheet keeps the weather off one person.

Features at a Glance
Hydrostatic Head (mm)5000The hydrostatic head of a fabric indicates how well it can keep water out and how waterproof it is. The higher the number, the better! A tent needs to have at least 1000mm HH for light showers, heavy rain and driving wind will put more pressure on the fabric and would therefore require a higher HH of 2000mm. Anything higher than this figure means it can keep out water being pushed through by someone leaning against it for example.
Number of Bedrooms1This is the number of sectioned off bedrooms that are included in this tent. The standard industry allowance is 60cm per person, though larger or premium tents often provide more space.
Persons1Tent berth indicates how many people your tent can accommodate for sleeping. The industry standard allocates about 60cm of width per occupant, though exact dimensions can vary by manufacturer. If you prefer extra elbow room, you may want a tent berth larger than your headcount. Many campers size up by one or two berths to improve comfort on longer trips.
Pole constructionAlloyThis is whether the poles are inflatable (air) or rigid (e.g - fibreglass / steel or aluminium).
Weight (kg)1.80This is the weight of the tent in kg.
