Hiking Backpacks, Daybags and Rucksacks
Hiking backpacks come from Ortovox, Arcteryx, Dakine and the original hydration specialists Camelbak. Taking all you need for a day’s hiking in comfort with these packs is a given so it’s time for you to start getting into the detail. If you’re carrying heavier weights, look at the width and padding of the main straps together with chest stabilising straps and waist straps. Consider the overall size carefully. A wider deeper pack than you really need will only get in the way if you’re scrambling through rocks. And if you like to have your water ready without fumbling around for your bottle in the bottom of your pack, consider a built-in hydration system, it’s a great way to get the water you need without any faff.
