5. Alps Mountaineering Chaos 2
Score – 31
This tent ranks 5th in our list of highest rated backpacking tents. It is quite budget friendly as it only costs $160 and it fits two people. It’s a great purchase if you’re only starting to go backpacking and camping, or if you’re going to only go out into the wild every once in a while.
It is an extremely easy tent, weighing in at under 5 pounds, which means it’s very easy to carry around even when you’re hauling around heavy baggage.
The tent is easy to assemble and comes with a standing pole system with aluminum poles and the polyester fly resists UV damage. The fly and floor seams are factory sealed, offering proper weather protection. There are two mesh doors, two vestibules and the weatherproof fly buckles.
