Silva Carbon Alloy Trekking Poles

Jump to: Our Verdict / Features / Specifications

A fast and light, z-pole design, with the added benefit of some adjustability, make a pole that can be stored easy, but also versatile out on the trail.

Gram-counter Gear says: 

An incredibly lightweight adjustable z-pole-designed trekking pole. Equally good for those looking to cover long distances quickly, as well as someone out for a more leisurely hike. They provide a very good level of support, are durable as well as comfortable in the hand.

Our Verdict

I’m a big fan of the design of these poles, as they are adjustable, you get the benefits of a folding pole, primarily how easy they are to stow away compared to more traditional poles, but also you can adjust the height, which is fantastic for steep assents, but also can be used in conjunction with a trekking pole tent, such as the Luna Solo, and have a level of adjustability depending on the weather, so these are a great allrounder as far as I’m concerned.
