Read about our Hiking and Gear Tips

The term "hiking" involves activities
such as backpacking, day walking on easy and difficult trail
as well as scrambling and climbing.

As with skiing, equipment is a major factor to ensure mountain fun.
A relatively small difference between
an OK and an excellent, well fitted boot or a backpack
makes a  huge difference on a 5 or 8 hour trip.
The same is with a tent, which can look good
but has some small features
that makes it annoying in a remote camping site, especially in the rain. Our staff has in depth hiking experience and we only recommend and sell the equipment that we believe is the best for our customers.

Enhance your hiking/backpacking enjoyment
by getting the right and well fitted gear for your mountain pleasure!

to include our
