The Khumbu Lite AS is a trusty companion and trekking pole for all mountain adventures. On long, demanding hikes, it is important to protect your joints and ligaments. This is ensured by the anti-shock damping system integrated above the tip.
The Aergon CorTec grip offers perfect grip and ensures comfortable pole handling.
