Lightweight Stability and Ergonomic Excellence

The Leki Khumbu Lite is the ideal trekking pole for hikers looking for a balance between weight savings and rugged durability. A lighter version of the legendary Khumbu, this pole is constructed from high-tensile HTS 6.5 Aluminum, providing a stiff and supportive platform that can handle the rigors of multi-day backpacking trips without adding unnecessary bulk to your kit. Its three-section telescoping design allows for easy packability and rapid deployment on the trail.

At the heart of the Khumbu Lite is the Aergon CorTec grip, featuring a large, supportive head for palming on steep descents and a lightweight, edgeless design for maximum comfort in various hand positions. Length adjustments are quick and secure thanks to the Speed Lock plus system, which is designed to be operated easily even while wearing gloves. Whether you are navigating technical alpine passes or rolling forest trails, the Khumbu Lite provides the precision and reliability needed for confident mountain travel.
