Best Packs for Backpacking

24-05-2023

If you're planning a trip into the wilderness, you'll need a backpacking pack.

Backpacking packs are different from standard backpacks because they have a larger carrying capacity and feature more complex suspension systems that consist of sternum straps, load lifters, compression straps, and hip belts. You can adjust all of these straps to disperse the pack weight across your torso and hips so that you can hike for miles in comfort with a lot of gear on your back.

Size and features ultimately come down to personal preference, but here are our top picks for backpacking trips.
