About The Product

The Alto semi-freestanding tent is perfect for the weight-conscious backpacker who still wants a high degree of livability in their shelter and is available in a one or two-person option.

The revolutionary Tension Ridge architecture of the Alto allows for taller oversized doors and vertical walls that create an unrivalled amount of space. Apex Vents positioned at the highest point of the tent effectively expel moist air and minimize condensation, and the variable rainfly can be rolled back on both sides for stargazing, then deployed quickly from inside the tent.

‘Alto’ is the Italian word for ‘high’. One night will prove that the Alto is a level above other ultralight tents.

SET-UP GUIDE

Frequently Asked questions

What are the differences between regular and plus models?

The Alto Plus tent has a nylon inside fabric with unzippable vents rather than mesh to keep cold air from getting into the inner tent. The Plus model also features a more waterproof floor (2500mm against 1200mm).

Does '3+ seasons' mean it can handle snow?

While the Alto tent is designed for use up to the end of shoulder seasons, it's not built to withstand heavy snow loads and should be guyed out in winds above 20 mph.

What does 'semi-freestanding' mean?

Rather than needing to secure a tent with poles attached to every corner, a semi-freestanding tent may only need one pole to hold up the structure and reinforced with stakes at the corners. Semi-freestanding tents are lighter weight and have smaller packed-volume.

Our Alto tents have a lighter poleset than the Telos, but they need to have the corners staked out at the head end.
