Lightweight backpack for ultralight trekking.
When every gram counts when trekking: The Lightweight trekking backpack offers high wearing comfort at low weight - ideal for fast hikes and pilgrimage. The ultra-lightweight trekking backpack has back-friendly padding: the cut-out at the lower back reduces pressure on the sacroiliac joint and prevents back pain. The Tergolight Comfort Space carrying system distributes the load optimally. Back length and load positioning are individually adjustable.
Thanks to their special shape, the airy Ergoshape shoulder straps of the Ahead 48+ leave enough freedom of movement for the arms on steep climbs. Energy bars or cell phone are within easy reach in the pockets on the shoulder straps and hip belt. From the elastic side pockets can be removed water bottle, cap, etc., without taking off the trekking backpack. Trekking poles can be easily attached while walking. Wet equipment finds room in the spacious front compartment and dries thanks to mesh inserts.
The variable daisy chain accommodates helmet and crampons. The top loader has an extra compartment for the hydration bladder. The replacement buckle on the top compression strap replaces any broken buckles on the go. The height-adjustable, removable lid expands the volume by another 8 liters and can also be worn separately as a hip bag.
The material of the Ahead 48+ is made from a mix of 100% recycled polyester as well as polyamide with a bio-based content of 62% castor oil - an extremely lightweight, tear-resistant, sustainable material. The VAUDE Green Shape label stands for an environmentally friendly, functional product made from bluesign® certified sustainable materials.
