Why You Need This in Nepal

Nepali trekking trails feature thousands of punishing stone steps—notably the 3,300 stone stairs up to Ulleri on the Annapurna route. Dual poles provide balance over shaky wooden suspension bridges, stabilize crossings on scree, and save your knees during steep descents.

Expert Advice & Mountain Protocol

•Shorten poles by 5-10cm on uphill climbs; lengthen by 5-10cm on steep downhill descents.
•Put your hands upward through the wrist straps so your palms rest comfortably on the straps.
