Frequently asked questions
Which trekking poles are suitable for beginners?▾
For beginners, lightweight, telescopic poles made of aluminum with a simple locking system and ergonomic grips are suitable. Brands like Komperdell or Masters offer solid entry-level models that provide a good balance of weight, stability, and price, making them ideal for initial hikes and trekking tours.
What is the difference between folding poles and telescopic poles?▾
Folding poles can be folded down to a small pack size in seconds and are particularly popular with ultralight hikers and trail runners. Telescopic poles are adjusted by extending the segments, offer stepless length adjustment, and are generally more robust under heavy loads. Folding poles score with minimal packed volume, telescopic poles with maximum stability and flexibility.
How do I find the right pole length for my height?▾
As a rule of thumb, when standing, your forearms should form a 90-degree angle with the pole planted on the ground; the pole length corresponds roughly to your height in centimeters multiplied by 0.66. Many trekking poles offer stepless adjustment so they can be individually adapted to your height and the terrain – shorter uphill, longer downhill.
Which poles are suitable for demanding mountain tours?▾
For demanding mountain tours and alpine terrain, robust telescopic poles with high-quality locking systems, ergonomic cork or foam grips, and replaceable carbide tips are recommended. Brands like Leki and Black Diamond offer models specifically developed for alpine use that function reliably even under heavy loads and adverse conditions.
What accessories do I need for my trekking poles?▾
Useful accessories include replacement carbide tips, rubber buffers for asphalt, snow baskets for soft ground, and transport bags. Especially with intensive use, it is worth keeping wear parts such as tips and buffers in stock so that the poles are always ready for use.
How do I properly care for and maintain my walking poles?▾
After every tour, the poles should be pulled apart, cleaned, and thoroughly dried to prevent corrosion and locking problems. The locks can be kept supple with a little silicone spray if necessary. Replacement tips should be changed in time before they are completely worn and damage the aluminum segments.
Are trekking poles also a good gift idea?▾
Yes, trekking poles are a thoughtful and high-quality gift for anyone who enjoys hiking, trekking, or spending time in the mountains. Brand models from Leki or Black Diamond with practical features such as a folding mechanism or ergonomic grips are particularly popular with outdoor fans and can be delivered quickly throughout Switzerland.
What should I look out for when buying trekking poles?▾
You should pay attention to the material (aluminum is more robust and cheaper, carbon is lighter and offers better vibration damping), the locking system (lever lock or twist lock), the grip material (cork is comfortable in heat, foam is soft and light), and the packed size if you frequently transport the poles in a backpack. The ability to replace tips and buffers is also an important quality feature.
