Carbon trekking poles: telescopic, foldable, collapsible
Carbon walking poles come in several designs depending on your needs: telescopic or foldable. Each type offers specific advantages to suit your hiking style.
- Telescopic poles: adjustable in length, ideal for varied terrain. The quick adjustment system allows you to adapt the height to the gradient and your body type.
- Foldable poles: ultra-compact, they collapse into sections for easy transport. Perfect for lightweight trekking or travel where every gram matters.
Carbon or aluminium walking poles
The material directly affects comfort, durability, and weight. A carbon pole contains at least 50% carbon fibre, combined with fibreglass. The higher the carbon content, the better the performance.
Carbon fibre poles
Carbon fibre stands out for its lightness and ability to absorb vibrations, ensuring comfort and endurance. However, it is more expensive and less resistant to impacts.
- Extremely lightweight, ideal for long-distance treks.
- Excellent vibration damping for optimal joint comfort.
- More fragile and sensitive to extreme temperatures.
Aluminium poles
Aluminium is appreciated for its strength and impact resistance. It bends rather than breaks and performs well in cold conditions. Models made from 7075 aluminium offer an excellent balance between lightness and ruggedness.
- Strong and durable construction.
- More affordable than carbon.
- Suitable for winter use with snow baskets.
Which material to choose based on your needs
For regular use and good value for money, aluminium remains a reliable option. If you prioritise lightness and comfort over long distances, go for carbon.
