Shoes: putting one foot in front of the other with complete peace of mind

Hiking starts with a good pair of shoes. To make the experience even more enjoyable, don't forget the essential accessories for your trail shoes and fully enjoy brands like Merrell, La Sportiva, or Lowa, known for their comfort, durability, and technicality. With these shoes, there's no excuse to turn back: your loved ones will always go further, always higher. A gift that works every time!

Poles: the ideal support for climbing peaks

Hiking poles are essential companions for tackling steep climbs and protecting joints on descents. Brands like Leki, Black Diamond, Guidetti, or TSL offer lightweight and practical models. To this, add the hiking pole accessories for even more comfort and performance. Giving poles is a bit like extending a hand to your loved ones in difficult moments (of hiking, of course)! With this gift, they will always be well supported on the trails.


Backpacks: to carry the mountain on your shoulders

A good backpack is the essential companion for all hikes, whether short or multi-day. Moreover, to help you choose a hiking backpack suited to your needs, check out all our specialized brands. Offer a model from recognized brands like Deuter, Osprey, Gregory, or Millet, which combine comfort, practicality, and large capacity. With lightweight and well-designed backpacks, your loved ones can carry all their gear without fearing back pain. Enough to set off on an adventure well-loaded, but always light! To keep your drinks cool, the insulated backpack is also an excellent gift idea!

Sleeping bag and mattress: to dream under the stars

What could be better than a good sleeping bag for a comfortable night in nature? Give your loved ones warm and lightweight models from brands like Sea to Summit, Ferrino, Thermarest, or Vaude. And to complete the set, think of inflatable or self-inflating mattresses, perfect for avoiding ending the night on rocks. Before heading out, remember to bring a reliable hiking compass to explore nature safely. With this gift, they will be ready to count the stars… warm and comfortably settled.


Accessories: the little extras that make all the difference

It is often the details that transform a hike into a successful adventure. Think of essential accessories like:

  • Water bottles and filtration systems: CamelBak, Katadyn, or Lifestraw for hydration in any circumstance.
  • Technical socks: Smartwool and Icebreaker for feet that are always dry and blister-free.
  • Headlamps: Petzl and Black Diamond to light up the night effectively.
  • Multi-tools: the famous Gerber or Opinel, ideal for tasks while camping.

With these little accessories, your loved ones will be ready to tackle the trails and experience memorable adventures. To equip even more, also discover our selection of hiking gear at the best price.
