Legendary Strength. Four-Season Expedition Performance.

The Quasar has been the benchmark for four-season expedition tents for over 40 years, and the latest update continues its legacy. This fully geodesic, high-strength shelter is designed for extreme conditions, offering unparalleled stability, durability, and all-weather protection. Weighing 3.36kg at maximum and 2.92kg at minimum, it is built for serious mountaineers, polar explorers, and all-season adventurers. The Quasar is stronger, more sustainable, and as expedition-ready as ever.

The Quasar has earned its reputation as one of the most dependable four-season expedition tents in the world, trusted by mountaineers and extreme-weather adventurers for over four decades. Its fully geodesic structure delivers exceptional stability, ensuring the tent remains secure in high winds, deep snow, and unpredictable winter conditions. The dual-door design with front and rear porches allows for flexible access and ample storage, making it an ideal choice for two-person teams tackling extreme environments.

For 2025, the Quasar has been updated to be completely PFC-free, aligning with Terra Nova’s commitment to sustainable performance. The recycled inner and groundsheet fabrics further enhance its eco-friendly credentials, without compromising on durability. The flysheet is made from a high-performance 30D nylon with a 5,000mm hydrostatic head, while the 70D PU-coated recycled groundsheet provides an impressive 10,000mm hydrostatic head, ensuring full waterproof protection in the harshest conditions.

The 9.5mm TN Reflex poles offer a superior strength-to-weight ratio, enhancing the tent’s ability to withstand heavy snow loads and extreme weather. With an inner length of 210cm and a width of 136cm, the Quasar provides a comfortable and secure space for two people, with generous headroom of 105cm. The 72cm porches at both ends ensure that gear storage and cooking arrangements remain practical, even in extreme conditions.

With a packed size of just 47cm x 18cm, the Quasar remains compact enough for demanding expeditions while providing the robustness required for remote, high-altitude, or arctic adventures.
