Best 4 Person Backpacking Tent 2023 – GWC Mag

4 Person Backpacking Tent Conclusion

Thank you for reading this buyer’s guide where we hope you found your next 4 person backpacking tent! The marketplace for a 4 person tent is unusually sparse, and options are limited. In fact, there are very few that we didn’t cover. If you’re wondering about a particular tent, but don’t see it featured, that’s most likely because it was too heavy or too poorly user-reviewed, and simply didn’t make the cut to justify recommending.

We’re still contemplating what it says about the marketplace that an overwhelming majority of 4 person tent offerings are price point or value-tier models, rather than premium performance models. Never before have we seen fewer options competing for the best overall slot. Truly, Big Agnes Copper Spur HV UL4 stands alone on a high pedestal.

Perhaps groups of more dedicated backpackers who are willing to buy fancier tents prefer separating out into two smaller tents, rather than using a 4 person backpacking tent. Perhaps families need a big tent, but can’t afford a fancier model while also supporting their children. Maybe beginners who buy entry level price point gear envision they are more likely to use a 4p tent than they actually are. Either way, it’s a fascinating phenomenon!

From all of us at Adventure Alan & Co, happy hiking, and happy camping!
