The LEKI Makalu Lite Compact (SS26) delivers professional-grade trekking support in a shorter, more packable design.

Purpose-built for hillwalkers and hikers seeking enhanced control on steep ascents and technical descents, these poles feature an adjustable range of 90–125cm—ideal for smaller users and those prioritising efficient technique and lightweight portability.

Engineering excellence defines every component. The Aergon Air grip paired with the PAS system ensures secure, ergonomic handling, whilst the Skin Strap 5.0 provides dependable wrist support during extended use. Speed Lock Plus enables rapid, tool-free length adjustments as terrain demands change, eliminating downtime on the trail.

Built from durable aluminium HTS 6.5 shafts, these poles withstand demanding conditions across mixed terrain. The Trekking Basket 2.0 prevents sinking on soft ground, whilst the Flex Tip (Short) delivers precise, stable pole plants on rock, scree, and variable surfaces. Lightweight construction reduces fatigue without compromising structural integrity—essential for long-distance hillwalking and alpine trekking.

Engineered for reliability in challenging conditions, the Makalu Lite Compact combines compact practicality with the performance standards serious walkers demand.
