Terra Nova Wild Country Helm Elite 2 2-Person Tent

Two-person igloo tent – a lighter version of the popular Helm Compact model, developed to minimise your equipment weight while maintaining a high level of durability and effective protection against adverse weather conditions. Its dome shape and robust materials ensure stability on a range of surfaces.

A well-thought-out design allows for quick pitching and preparation for use. The Superflex twin-pole frame provides the right tension of the flysheet, keeping the structure stable, while the carefully planned interior maximises both sleeping area and vestibule space.

The flysheet is made from the innovative Elite (Wild Country) material – a combination of 20D nylon and 20D Rip-Stop nylon, offering waterproofing of 4000 mm/m2 and effective protection against rain and wind.

The floor, crafted from 75D polyester, ensures water resistance at 5000 mm/m2 and handles intensive use and ground contact exceptionally well. The tent’s interior is made from 20D Rip-Stop nylon – a lightweight yet mechanically robust material.

The materials feature a hydrophobic polyurethane coating free from PFCs. The Rip-Stop structure prevents the spread of mechanical damage such as abrasions or punctures, increasing the system’s overall durability during camping in challenging conditions.

The igloo design with two Superflex aluminium poles ensures proper rigidity and resistance across varied terrain. The frame allows simple pitching on multiple ground types, and precisely selected materials provide the ideal balance of weight and durability. Thanks to the Easy Pitch and Easy Pack systems, pitching and packing the tent is exceptionally hassle-free.

The structure can accommodate standard trekking poles, reducing the number of additional components needed for set-up and making lightweight equipment configuration easier. This approach minimises the need for extra frame parts, which is crucial when preparing a light expedition kit.

A sleeping area with dimensions of 222 x 120 x 100 cm offers comfort for one user and space for essential kit. The design allows you to stretch out freely and efficiently organise your interior. Two separate entrances and two vestibules provide safe storage for gear outside the sleeping zone.

The mesh panel system enables you to regulate airflow according to the weather. This setup helps to reduce condensation, especially on cold or damp nights, while allowing you to control air flow – from full ventilation to partial closure for extra wind protection.

Reflective Dyneema guylines significantly increase tent visibility after dark and lower the risk of tripping. The low weight of 2130 g and the compact packed size of (32 x 20 x 20 cm) make it easy to transport your shelter in a backpack. The design is tailored to comfortable carrying even on long and demanding treks.
