Kids' Hiking Backpacks

Children's Backpacks for Hiking and Leisure

Children's hiking backpacks in our offer are designed with maximum consideration for the comfort and health of your children. Hiking backpacks for children differ from ordinary backpacks in their construction and materials used. They are often equipped with a special back system that adapts to the anatomy of a child's back, and padding that ensures comfortable carrying even on longer trips. This way, the little hiker can fully concentrate on the beauty of nature, not on aching backs.

How to Choose the Right Backpack for Little Hikers

When choosing a children's hiking backpack, it is important to consider several key factors.

• Ergonomics and Comfort: The backpack should fit perfectly on the child's back. Padded back and adjustable shoulder straps are important for comfortable carrying. Most dedicated hiking backpacks also have chest and hip straps to help distribute weight.
• Quality Materials: Quality hiking backpacks are made from durable and lightweight materials such as polyester and nylon. For extra strength and tear protection, ripstop technology is often used, creating a grid-like structure. The density of fibers, indicated as denier (D), is also important. The higher the D value, the stronger the material. Some backpacks have a special surface treatment/coating for waterproofing.
• Safety: Look for reflective elements for better visibility on roads and in twilight.
• Volume and Internal Organization: Choose a volume that matches the planned activity. For shorter trips and younger children, a smaller backpack will be suitable, while for full-day trips and older hikers, a backpack with a larger volume is more appropriate. Internal organization with compartments and zippered pockets is also important to facilitate equipment organization.
• Additional Features: Many backpacks have practical features that enhance comfort and functionality. Children's hiking backpacks can be equipped with hydration pack compatibility, side pockets for water bottles, or practical loops for attaching trekking poles or other equipment on the outside of the backpack.
