Backpacks up to 40L

40 L backpacks are the perfect companion for your next trip into the outdoors. With enough space to store all your belongings and equipment, they are ideal for longer and more demanding hikes. Whether you are heading for hiking, trekking or a longer trip, a 40-litre backpack will provide the volume you need for comfortable carrying.

How to Choose a 40 L Hiking Backpack?

Below we explain how to choose a 40 L hiking backpack and what properties to consider:

• Type of activity – what activities will you use the backpack for? If you plan longer hiking trips or expeditions, choose a backpack with more organisational pockets and durable materials to handle demanding terrain.
• Comfort and carrying – a 40-litre backpack should have comfortable and well-padded shoulder straps to minimise strain on your back and shoulders.
• Material and durability – a 40 L backpack should be made from quality, durable materials that resist water and wear.
• Design – which colour will be yours? Classic black, camouflage in woodland pattern, or less typical red?
• Features – some backpacks may have useful functions such as external attachments for trekking poles, sleeping mats or gear. Almost every 40 L rucksack already offers the option of attaching via the MOLLE system.
• Price and brand – budget is an important factor. Trust in the brand is equally important. Check reviews and ratings from other hikers, by which our backpacks are sorted here.
