Hiking backpacks

Discover our range of backpacks for itinerant activities, from day hikes to multi-day trekking.

The importance of a good backpack for hiking

A good backpack is essential for any hiker as it directly influences the comfort and efficiency of the walk. A suitable model allows for effective weight distribution, thus reducing fatigue and increasing enjoyment along the way. Our selection includes ergonomic backpacks like those from Osprey, durable and perfect for any type of trekking, whether it is short-term or a multi-day expedition. 
 

How to choose your backpack?

The choice of a backpack depends on several criteria, including size, weight, capacity, frame type, and materials used. For day trips, a lightweight 20 to 30-liter backpack will suffice. For multi-day hikes, opt for a 40-liter or larger model with padded shoulder straps and a sturdy waist belt to better distribute the weight. Our offer consists of backpacks with various adjustments to perfectly fit your body shape, ensuring comfort and support regardless of your load's weight.
 

Ultralight backpacks: good or bad idea?

Choosing an ultralight backpack is an excellent idea for hikers looking to minimize fatigue and maximize mobility. However, it is crucial not to sacrifice sturdiness and comfort for lightness. Before opting for an ultralight trekking backpack, make sure to reduce and optimize the weight of your gear. Once done, you can look for a lighter model. These are ideal for those who engage in fast hikes or demanding trails where every gram counts. Among the leading brands, it is impossible not to mention Zpacks or Hyberg.
 

Complementary accessories

To enhance your hiking experience, consider adding complementary accessories to your equipment. A rain cover, a hydration bladder, or storage pouches for equipment are essential to keep your belongings dry and stay hydrated easily. Additionally, a good tip is to have dry bags or compartments to organize your backpack's contents and find the equipment you need without having to empty everything. As you can see, while today's backpacks are well-accessorized, it is still possible to customize them according to your specific needs.
