Gram-counter Gear Trekking Poles Carbon

Jump to: Our Verdict / Features / Specifications

Silva Trekking poles carbon are made for walking, just like you. Bring these lightweight trekking poles made of carbon when you are hiking or trekking in the mountains. By using poles, you will take off the load on your joints, improve your balance and save energy.

Silva says: 

Adjust the length up to 140 cm with the easy aluminium “flick-lock” system. The poles can be conveniently pushed together into three pieces and carried in your backpack, or attached to your backpack, when not needed.

These poles have comfortable cork handles, which are ideal in both warm and cold temperatures. The extended foam handles are convenient in steep terrain or when you quickly want to change grip. The wrist straps are soft and easy to adjust and will make even a full day of hiking comfortable.

Do you go on hikes in muddy terrain or even in lots of snow? These poles include removable snow baskets, rubber paws and interchangeable tips. Bring your poles on all your adventures regardless of the season without the risk to wear them out. The carbide tips are concave for even better grip on trails and in rough terrain. Snow baskets, carbide tips, wrist straps and rubber paws can also be bought as spare parts.

Store your poles in the included storage bag in between adventures, and these poles will be ready for a hike whenever you are. There is always more to discover.

Our Verdict

Sleek and well-made, Silva Trekking poles carbon are very robust. The Flick-lock closure is more secure than twist locks, especially if you use the poles to support a tent, and allows you to vary the length of the poles when ascending and descending from 100cm-140cm.

The cork handles feel nice, the extended foam grips work well when ascending, and the straps are large, and help support the wrist.
