Choosing the right backpack for your outdoor adventure can be a game changer! With different features and the right size (volume) for your adventure, you can enhance your experience in many ways – e.g., having more energy and options of equipment when doing a longer hike or easy packing for shorter distances. In this guide, we will give you a tip on different backpacks suitable for different outdoor adventures, an overview of must-haves in your packing as well as the benefits of different features.
If you are planning a day hike, then you will need a backpack that is just right for the equipment you need for the day – whether you are planning for cooking outdoors or only hike for a few hours nearby and need an extra set of clothes or rain clothes.
If you are planning to stay outdoors one or two nights – then you need to bring a little more! E.g. a tent, food, kitchen and sleeping bag. The backpack you choose will need to carry the essentials for staying outdoors – however, you’ll not need several changes of clothing and not stock up on food so the volume you need will be less to carry.
When taking a longer hike, e.g. a week – you’ll not only need to pack more equipment or different equipment but also planning for different obstacles or challenges, e.g bad weather and ability to dry or water and food for longer stretches of time.
A hiking backpack is more than just a place to store your gear—it’s a loyal companion that makes every step easier and every adventure smoother. Below, we’ll break down all the clever features and how to use them, so you always have what you need, exactly when you need it.
