Trekking rucksack is a type of backpack with additional pockets and hip or chest belts to carry a heavier load while trekking. Trekkers use a rucksack while on a day hike or short overnight trek to carry essential apparel, equipment, or accessories required during the trek. A suitable rucksack is light weight, waterproof, expandable, offers good back ventilation, has good pocket organization, durable zippers, and adjustable belts. Such beneficial features of trekking rucksacks make them a desired choice amongst trekkers to carry necessary items such as water, additional clothing, food, and others. Rucksacks, along with being ultra-lightweight, are also spacious to hold all the necessary items required during a trek. A rucksack with a capacity of more than 50 litres is suitable for weekend hikes as well as for week-long backpacking adventures. The adjustable belts and straps incorporated on the rucksack ensure a smooth and comfortable trekking experience as the position of the rucksack can be adjusted according to the torso length and waist size of the trekker. Additionally, the shoulder straps/belts are padded with honeycomb structure to evenly spread the pressure and experience a comfortable trek. The adjustable feature of the body–hugging belts and straps also helps in maintaining proper balance while trekking. During summers, a rucksack with proper back ventilation is the perfect choice as the free span mesh at the back of the rucksack keeps the trekkers back cool and sweat free. Yet another beneficial feature is the waterproof fabric used to manufacture the rucksack. In most of the highly priced rucksacks, a double waterproof fabric is used to ensure no water is soaked by the backpack’s fabric and the content kept inside are safe and dry. A waterproof rucksack is the utmost choice for trekkers due to the changing weather conditions, resulting in non-seasonal rains; and the need to cross small rivers and lakes during the trek. Majority of the rucksacks are expandable with proper pocket organization and durable zippers fitted in them. The expandable feature allows trekkers to carry non-essential items with them along with the essential items. Whereas a good and strategic pocket organization ensures that the trekker can easily access the pockets while trekking without the need to frequently stop in the way to remove/keep items from/in the pocket. The durable zippers in a trekking rucksack keep the rucksack closed and its item intact. Such zippers do not tear up when access items are fitted inside the rucksack. Owing to such beneficial properties, rucksacks are witnessing increasing demand amongst the trekkers, which in turn is boosting the growth of trekking rucksacks market.
