Wild Country Zephyros Compact 2 V3 Tent + Footprint Package
The Wild Country Zephyros Compact 2 V3 tent + Footprint package is a classic 2-person lightweight tent. Its compact pack size and easy pitch design make it a versatile tent for more than just solo backpacking.
Updated for 2021 with a new colour and end pole adjusters to help with pitching. Winner of the T3 Tent Awards 2020.
The Zephyros Compact 2 combines low weight, practical compact pack size and weatherproof construction, making it a favourite for backpacking, bike-packing and mountain marathons.
It’s a good choice for short to medium-length trips – for longer treks for two or where you have a lot of gear, you might find a larger tent more comfortable. If you’re heading off solo and want more space then this 2 person tent is worth considering.
The Zephyros Compact 2 has been designed for 3 season use and it’s great for wild camping as well as campsite stays. For those looking for a tent that’s quick to pitch, this goes up with the flysheet and inner together and with the connected flysheet and inner peg points it’s easy to peg out too.
The main and end poles are Superflex alloy and the pole set folds down to 30cm long. Pegs are alloy ‘v’ angle to give a good anchor. The flysheet and groundsheet are seam-sealed and made from high-performance polyester to keep out the wet.
Several ventilation options are possible to manage airflow and help reduce condensation – there’s a mesh panel on the inner door and a further mesh panel (with covers) at each end of the inner tent and flysheet. For convenience, there are 2 doors plus one porch so no waking your companion if you need to get out of the tent in the night.
To help with visibility in the dark or low light, the main pole sleeve has reflective trim and the yellow guylines are reflective.
When it’s time to leave the tent rolls up into its generous side-opening tarp-style bag and secured with the drawcord.

The Wild Country Zephyros 2/Zephyros 2 Compact Footprint is shaped to fit the footprint of your tent to provide extra protection. Although Wild Country is confident that its inner tent groundsheets will outperform any similar groundsheet fabric, Wild Country recommends the use of a groundsheet protector or footprint for extra security against sharp objects. Wild Country footprints are sized to fit under each model’s flysheet and attach to the tent’s pole feet using shock cord loops.
