Makalu Lite is a trekking pole designed for demanding mountain conditions, combining low weight with high durability and reliability. Thanks to a well-thought-out construction made from HTS 6.5 aluminium alloy, it can handle steep ascents as well as technically demanding descents with full control in hand.
The pole is intended for adult users regardless of gender and is ideal for trekking, hiking in mountain terrain and walks on easy trails. Smooth length adjustment in the 100–135 cm range ensures you can adapt the pole precisely to your needs and the terrain.
- Ergonomic Aergon Air grip for perfect support
The Aergon Air grip uses unique hollow-core technology that combines low weight with large support surfaces that meet all ergonomic requirements of the hand, while the rubberised back of the grip ensures reliable traction even in the most demanding terrain, so you always have the pole firmly under control – especially on descents, where precise control is absolutely essential. - Fast and secure length adjustment with Speed Lock Plus
The Speed Lock Plus locking system uses an external clamp that allows easy and quick pole length changes directly in the field without complicated adjustments, while offering maximum clamping force, so you don’t have to worry about unwanted loosening even under intense physical load or sudden movements.

We are an authorized dealer of LEKI ski poles and gloves. The German brand LEKI is one of the world's top manufacturers of downhill ski poles, cross-country ski poles, trekking poles, Nordic walking poles and sports gloves.
For LEKI trail (running) or trekking poles, the following guideline applies:
Your height × 0.68 → round up to the nearest 0 or 5.
Example: User height 182 cm × 0.68 = 123.76 cm → rounded to 125 cm.
This is the standard length for comfortable running or walking with your elbow at a natural angle of about 90°.
Measure the circumference of your palm as shown in the illustration. Compare the measured length with the lengths in the tables to determine the approximate size of your gloves.
