Ultralight camping chairs for trekking, bikepacking, and vanlife – from just 1,060 g, foldable and with a small pack size. Perfect for anyone counting every gram on the move.

uquip Infinity ultralight camping chair in mid-air – 1,060 g, foldable with small pack size

Ultralight Camping Chairs – from 1,060 g, Foldable & Compact Pack Size

An ultralight camping chair should do one thing well: stay out of the way until you need it. The uquip Infinity weighs 1,060 g net (1,200 g with carry bag), folds down to 46 × 15 × 15 cm, and still supports up to 120 kg. That's thanks to a frame made from aluminium 7075 – the alloy used in aerospace for its strength-to-weight ratio.

This category covers two product groups: ultralight camping chairs with backrest (Infinity, Infinity Lounger) and ultralight tripod stools without backrest (Trinity M, Trinity L, ThreeSixty Mini). Both share the same idea – minimal weight without sacrificing everyday usability.

Good to know: All Trinity and ThreeSixty models are tripod stools – they have no backrest. If you need a backrest, choose Infinity or Infinity Lounger.

Compact pack size thanks to the shock-cord system

The Infinity folds down to 46 × 15 × 15 cm – smaller than a 1.5 L water bottle. The intuitive shock-cord system connects the segments under tension: pull apart, slot together, done. Setup takes about 30 seconds.

Combine the Infinity with an ultralight Liberty camping table for a compact travel setup – or explore our beach chairs for your next trip to the coast.

Accessory

Muddy Infinity – foot caps for soft ground

A known drawback of ultralight chairs: the narrow feet sink into sand or grass. The Muddy foot caps made of TPE (65 g per set) increase the contact area and give your Infinity or Infinity Lounger immediate stability on soft ground. Four replacement feet are included.

Vanlife, trekking, and bikepacking

Whether in your camper van, hiking backpack, or on your bike – the Infinity range is designed for situations where space and weight are tight. Inside a van, it slots under any seat; on a trekking pack, it lashes to the outside; on a bike tour, it fits into most panniers.

  • Van & camper: fits under a seat or in the rear drawer
  • Trekking: lashable to the outside of a backpack
  • Bikepacking: Infinity and Trinity M/L for small pack size
  • Setup: around 30 seconds thanks to the shock-cord system

Built sturdy – for regular use

Ultralight doesn't mean fragile at uquip. The aluminium 7075 frame holds loads up to 120 kg, and the tear-resistant polyester fabric stays dimensionally stable under regular use. If something does wear, replacement feet and covers are available separately – extending usable life and reducing the need for a new purchase.

Aluminium 7075 – why the alloy matters

For Infinity, Infinity Lounger, and the Trinity range, we use aluminium 7075 – a zinc-alloyed grade valued in aerospace for its strength-to-weight ratio. In practice: thinner tube walls at the same load rating. That's how we reach 120 kg capacity at 1,060 g chair weight.

In short: Infinity for trekking and minimalist camping, Infinity Lounger for vanlife and campfire evenings, Trinity M/L as tripod stools for backpack or vest.

Frequently asked questions about ultralight camping chairs

What is an ultralight camping chair? +
An ultralight camping chair is a foldable chair weighing under roughly 1.5 kg, with a pack size small enough to make it viable for trekking, bikepacking, and vanlife. The uquip Infinity weighs 1,060 g net and packs down to 46 × 15 × 15 cm – a typical example of the category.
Which uquip ultralight camping chair is the lightest? +
The lightest foldable camping chair with backrest is the Infinity at 1,060 g net (1,200 g with carry bag). For even less weight, the Trinity M tripod stool comes in at 275 g net (295 g with carry bag) – but without a backrest.
Which ultralight camping chair has the smallest pack size? +
Among chairs with backrest, the Infinity is the most compact (46 × 15 × 15 cm). The Infinity Lounger with high backrest packs down to 50 × 16 × 16 cm. The Trinity tripod stools are even slimmer at 35 × 7 × 7 cm (M) and 43 × 7 × 7 cm (L) – but without a backrest.
What's the difference between Infinity and Infinity Lounger? +
Both are ultralight camping chairs made from aluminium 7075 with 120 kg capacity and 42 cm seat height. The Infinity is lighter and more compact at 1,060 g net – ideal for trekking and travel. The Infinity Lounger adds a high backrest, padded headrest, and bottle holder at 1,550 g net. For longer seated sessions (campfire, van setup), the Lounger is the better pick.
What's the difference between Trinity M and Trinity L? +
Both are tripod stools without backrest, made from aluminium 7075 with 120 kg capacity. Trinity M is more compact (275 g net, 28 cm seat height). Trinity L gives you more seating surface and a higher seat (315 g net, 35 cm). Pick M for minimum weight, L for more comfortable seating.
Is an ultralight camping chair sturdy enough? +
Yes. The uquip Infinity models are rated for 120 kg capacity, the ThreeSixty Mini for 130 kg. That's made possible by the aluminium 7075 alloy, which allows for a higher strength-to-weight ratio than standard aluminium. On very soft ground (sand, loose grass), we recommend the Muddy Infinity foot caps to prevent sinking.
Is the uquip Infinity suitable for bikepacking? +
Yes. The Infinity at 1,060 g net and 46 × 15 × 15 cm pack size fits most bikepacking bags. For further weight savings, pair a Trinity M (275 g net) with a sleeping pad as an improvised backrest.
How much weight does the Infinity Lounger hold? +
The Infinity Lounger has a maximum capacity of 120 kg. Weight is 1,550 g net (1,700 g with carry bag), pack size 50 × 16 × 16 cm, seat height 42 cm.
