Buying trekking backpack

Find Your next Backpack

Are you looking for a reliable and robust hiking backpack, a lightweight option with a focus on carrying comfort, or a sleek and functional backpack for your laptop? We have backpacks for all your adventures, big and small.

Carrying things on your back is by far the best method, and with a good backpack (packed correctly), you can walk long distances with heavy loads without much discomfort. However, it's crucial to adjust your backpack properly.

Questions to Consider before Buying:

  • What capacity do you need?
  • Do you have any preferences when it comes to weight?
  • What features and functionality do you need?
  • It's important to choose quality and durability

Which Backpack for which Adventure?

Choosing the right backpack size can be challenging. Here’s a guide to help you pick the perfect backpack for your adventure:

  • 10-30L: Ideal for day trips without a tent.
  • 30-50L: Suitable for day or overnight trips with a tent or in a hut.
  • 60-75L: Perfect for multi-day treks with a tent, food, clothing, and kitchen gear.
  • 90L+: Best for long treks where you need to be self-sufficient for 7+ days.

"Regardless of your hike's length or your pack's weight, ensure your backpack is comfortable and the right size for your needs."

- Håkan Nyström, backpack designer.
