A ski touring or ski backpack is essential in the mountains – it holds avalanche equipment, spare layers, a thermos and crampons, and thanks to its side or diagonal ski attachment, it keeps your hands free during the ascent.
For single-day ski touring trips, a capacity of 20–30 litres is sufficient; for multi-day tours, choose a larger size. Look for quick access to the shovel and probe, helmet compatibility and reinforced back panels that stabilise the backpack during descent. A good ski touring backpack will carry skis and crampons and offer quick access to avalanche equipment.
