Ortovox - Peak Light 38S, ultralight mountaineering backpack

The Peak Light 38S backpack was designed for lightweight and very functional hiking for mountaineers with a short back and a height of under 165 cm.

The PEAK LIGHT 38 backpack from Ortovox is a featherweight among alpine backpacks and is an ideal companion for demanding hikes in the high mountains. It is extremely light, technical and particularly functional thanks to the new SWISSWOOL TEC-KNIT back system for temperature management. With a volume of 38 liters, the backpack offers enough space for multi-day hikes in the high mountains without sacrificing comfort.

The PEAK LIGHT 38 S backpack for high mountain excursions was designed specifically for the needs of people with shorter backs, ensuring an optimal fit. Thanks to the processing of 420D Oxford nylon, a material that is particularly resistant to tears and friction; the backpack is at the same time very robust and extremely light. Nylon fabric is one of the lightest materials used for our backpacks. The material is also water-repellent thanks to its PU coating.

The new triangular structure of the lid allows for variable adjustment in rope fastening and other things without moving. The lid is completely removable or stowable in the main compartment. Even if stowed in the main compartment, the lid hinge can continue to be opened without any problem. The lid has two compartments. The glued seams make the cover completely waterproof.

The SWISSWOOL-TEC-KNIT BACK PROTECTOR is synonymous with the innovative synthesis between a technical foam back and hot-pressed Swiss wool covered with a highly technological 3D knitted fabric. The wool compresses are used in areas in contact with the back and store large quantities of moisture without giving the sensation of being wet.

The total weight of 1170 g.* can be reduced by another 410 g.* by removing the lid, the belly band, the aluminum frame and other various external fixing options. With a minimum weight of 760 g.* it can therefore expand its field of use and be used, for example, for alpine climbing on multi-pitch routes.
