141 products
A hiking backpack is an incredibly helpful tool whether you’re an expert hiker or have never set foot near the woods. They’re multipurpose, able to carry anything from snacks and hiking gear to clothes and camping equipment. Hiking backpacks are built with rugged materials that won’t tear easily and keep your items protected.
Mountain Equipment takes pride in being the no. 1 supplier of hiking backpacks in Australia as well as having the widest range of brands for you to choose from. We stock equipment from Australia's favourite gear companies such as Lowe Alpine, Osprey, Mont, Exped, Sea to Summit and more trailblazing outdoor brands in-store and online.
