This backpack will hold all of your needs for hiking or even traveling. No wasted space in this backpack. Very comfortable and lightweight. Comes with a waterproof covering in case of inclement weather. Definitely worth the money.

5 chewmeista
This is a very high quality hiking backpack. It is lightweight, but seems very durable and well made. There is a high attention to detail as well. The water bottle pockets are noce and stretchy to hold a variety of different sized bottles. I would definitely recommend this product to anybody who doesnt want to break the bank when it comes to a nice hiking bakpack.

5 Jorge
Hiking backpack is very srurdt and has plenty of space. I was able to fit my jetboil, jetboil pan, spatula, utinsils, compact sleeping bag, snacks, water bottle. And other items. They back support is great. Has plenty of pockets for individual items. Seems to ne rain resistant which is a big plus.

5 David
This backpack is amazing. It ’s HUGE. Lots of pockets. Lots of places to store all of your outdoor and camping equipment. It ’s lightweight and the belt supports your back making it easy to carry and enjoy your hike.

Very good backpack, high quality, spacious and very light. My husband is not a professional hiker and he likes this backpack. The color looks good and the shoulder straps and waist straps are comfortable.

5 HEbrecht
We purchased a loop backpack when our son was in pre- K, after the character backpack we originally got him, broke within the first few weeks of school. That was 11 years ago, the Sierra backpack held up through daily use, stuffed to the brim! It was a no brainer to replace the old backpack with the same brand. Great quality!

5 Steve T
The Quest Expedition was exactly what i was looking for. I tend to over pack for day trips so i went for the 45L size pack. Can still fit a lot stuff inside. Its very comfortable to wear all day. I feel like its very well made and will hold up for a while.

5 Dean
Nice sized backpack with quality construction. Big enough for medium trips without being too big. Lots of pockets for storage. Nicely padded straps. Perfect for flights or medium length backpacking.

5 Jstan2700
This backpack is very big and sturdy and it can definitely hold a lot of whatever you need. I like that is has additional smaller pockets on the handles and straps to keep small things like wallets, cash, or cards dry and separate from the rest of the items you 're holding. the arm and waist straps are seemingly strong and easy to adjust to proper fit, and they hold the pack in place very securely. It's also nice looking and the easy to remove/attach waterproof cover is an additional plus.

5 Angel21
This backpack is very nice. Has several smaller pockets to store several items. It is lightweight and comfortable to wear. The straps adjust very easily. It also has a rain cover that works great. And the cover is easily stored in one of the pockets. Would definitely recommend

5 Kasey
This is a lightweight backpack that I feel is a good balance of capacity and comfort. Lightweight but durable fabric. It has buckles that can keep the backpack more compact, or unclipped, can expand to the full size. Has many pockets and comes with a rain shield in a bottom pocket to cover the whole backpack in the rain. The chest and waist clips to secure the backpack are comfortable too. This backpack also has a central zipper down the middle which would help you reach anything inside easily, even in the bottom of the pack.

4 Patrick M
This backpack is well proportioned and has all of the right amount of pockets for storage of all sizes of items for your journey. It is also comfortable to wear which is a must. My only complaints are two minor things. First, the bottom zipper where the sleeping bag goes can get stuck easily on the zipper guard/overhang. Second, the padding on the waistline can soak up a lot of sweat. But overall a great backpack and looks cool too. I will keep it for years to come.

4 Nasty
I bought this bag to use on a weekend hike on the AT with my thru hiking son. The bag served it ’s purpose. I was able to carry everything I needed easily in the main compartment and brain. The zip pockets on the outside are pretty useless once the main compartment is filled. Same with the water bladder. I did not use it. For the money though it ’s a good bag. It was comfortable on two 10 mile days from McAfee Knob trailhead to Daleville, VA. My torso measurement was 18 and I used the small setting on the adjuster. I tried the medium setting but the shoulder straps did not lay correctly on my back.

I love my Big Agnes 32L pack for long trips abroad but sometimes you need a smaller pack for hikes, light travel, etc. This Osprey fills the bill and I am very impressed with the design. They are well known for the quality and it is obvious in this pack.

5 Glicker
This is my first day pack with internal frame. It makes it very comfortable to wear, balancing the weight down onto my hips( even unbelted and even wearing it on one shoulder) and the frame with mesh back keeps my back cooler even in 93 degree humid weather. The pockets are n't ideal. The top front pocket is very small( and if you put a heavy phone there it is unbalanced). The internal( water or laptop) pocket is deep- so anything small put in there is lost to posterity( beware). The water bottle pockets on the side fit a smaller water bottle easily but tougher with anything larger. I used it as a carry on( personal item) and no complaints from the flight attendants about how it fit under the seat in front of me, though the top did stick out a little and I found it to be a bit in the way of stretching my lets. It fit a ton of stuff- I had an umbrella and rain jacket, wallet, cosmetic size bag with electronic cables and earbuds, cosmetic bag with actual cosmetics, book, magazine, two journals, an airport shopping bag( small), and small cosmetic bag with meds in there. There is a helpful clip to attach your neck pillow! It also has a rain cover in a pouch at the bottom that was very useful in a downpour, if a little hard to extract and put in place on the fly.

5 JJyong
I ’ ve been using this backpack for a while now and I have to say, one of its great features is the smart design that balances comfort and functionality. The padded shoulder straps make it really comfortable to carry, even when it ’s fully loaded. I also love the multiple compartments — it ’s easy to keep everything organized, from my laptop to small accessories. The material feels durable and water- resistant, so I don ’ t have to worry about sudden rain. Overall, it ’s a stylish, practical, and reliable backpack that works perfectly for both daily use and travel.

5 Esteban55
I bought this item a few months back for my girlfriend. She loved the light purple color I chose as well as how comfortable it was. So far she has enjoyed it on multiple day hikes and loves how simple the organization is as well as the support while loaded up with layers, lunch, first aid kit, etc. She especially loved the ability to add her trekking poles to her pack while not in use and overall is happy with her Osprey Hikelite pack.

I hiked across Spain for 500 miles over 35 days carrying this pack. I had NO issues and it was so comfortable. I carried about 13- 15 lbs with a water bladder. Only wish the water bladder nozzle had a cover as every time I set the pack down my nozzle touched the ground- good for my immune system! I just feel so grateful for my pack. One of your sales people on the phone recommended it after I tried several other models and sizes. Could n't be happier. One of the zippers broke before my trip but it was n't key. I will call regarding this. Otherwise- highly recommend this pack. So light, so comfy, so kind to my body after a long haul. Thank you.

5 NWmountainmama
I used this pack for the first time on a 12 mile round trip overnight stay at a lake. It held everything I needed- I am an over packer too- and I still had room to pack out a few extra things like camp garbage. The hip support pads were nice and cushioned and didn ’ t chafe my skin like other packs, but I did notice my hips more sore than normal the day after. I wish there was more exterior pockets for smaller items, but the top cover having such a large pocket did the trick for me to access things like headlamp, bug spray, and some snacks. I ’ m very loyal to TNF brand and was reluctant to replace my well used spectrum pack, but very happy with my purchase and look forward to more use.

I got this backpack to prepare for my 3 month trip in the Caribbean and it ’s has been so helpful to say the least. I have an overpacking problem but all of the different compartments and pockets made it so I could fit everything I needed. The support on the backside of it helps so much with my back pain and doesn ’ t make me feel exhausted at the end of a busy travel day. Furthermore, the top bit comes off as a smaller backpack which was perfect for day trips. The only thing i would change would be the smaller buckles that attach the front pocket to the bag, they were a little weak. However, I don ’ t have any worry they will come undone when I check it at the airport. Overall, this bag has been a HUGE help!! It definitely has made my traveling much easier.

5 sanahk2
[ This Ampex 65L transcend backpack is quite impressive. It checks all high- end features like- waterproof material, little pockets for essentials is awesome. It provides really decent support for the frame on the back and the rest on the hips, rather than on upper back and shoulders. Lastly as it is 65L- it can pack everything needed for international or a multi- day hike comfortably.

[ This is the perfect bag! It ’s large and has so many different pockets so you can get to anything and everything you have stored in it! It has an attached wet bag as well as a raincoat for your backpack!

5 candrus02
This is a great backpack for the price. I am giving it 5 stars because it's everything you would want and need in a pack. The middle zipper opening is an amazing feature that allows you to get into your items without having to pull everything out from the top like a conventional pack. One downside are the hip straps. I feel they could be slightly larger for the size of pack, I had some discomfort but nothing terribly bad, likely had more to do with me being out of shape as well. I recommended this to a buddy and he has one and uses it quite often like myself.

5 Ernesto_hbr
I went backpacking in Linville Gorge, NC for three days, and honestly, my best choice was the 65L backpack. It fit what I needed and had plenty of room to spare. The support to keep my back from sweating, the elastic exterior pockets, and the included small daypack are my favorite details. I would change the side straps for the rigid mat to be a little longer, and the phone holder to be more elastic, since my S23 Ultra does n't fit. I highly recommend this backpack without a doubt.

We bought this for my son as we got more into backpacking. This pack is versatile and handles his gear nicely. It isn ’ t unusual for him to strap the sleeping pad to the bottom of the pack.

I have been shopping for a backpack for a few months now, reading all the reviews. I was n't quite sure what I wanted, so I ended up ordering a few different ones. This 45 L pathway 2 backpack is likely my favorite in a lot of ways. The waist strap is great with good cushioning, preferable imo to the current sytle of thin straps. The chest strap is nice too, adjustable height. The layout of pockets is pretty much spot on on this bag, I could n't ask for a better design. Even compared to more expensive brands. Super happy with this and have purchased a second. Will continue to look at high sierra in the future.

[ I like everything about it so far. It's been on a few wet, muddy adventures and it cleans up well. It has suited my needs well. The only issue for me is that the lunch cooler bag I already had is a tight fit so I 'm going to have to replace it. I am a happy customer.

[ Great pack. Solid construction. I love that my back does t hardly sweat like it does with other packs due to the construction of the back materials. I ’ m impressed with Osprey quality. This is my first pack from this company and it looks to be the best quality materials and feels solid. I think this pack will last me a long time on many different adventures.

I originally bought this pack to walk the Camino de Santiago France, 500 miles. But, it was too tall to use as a carry on bag on the airline. I did train with it and walked a lot of miles through mountains, etc.. Very comfortable and well designed. Everything functions well.

I ’ ve taken this backpack to two different 30 day trips. And I have been through every single situation, terrain( minus snow), 10+ flights( a few made made check in bag) camped, hiked, walked through beaches, visited hostels. Hours in airports and this backpack is A beast. I stuff the heck out of this bag. It packs like a 50L. The top most pocket is so big. Can fit a toiletry bag and more. Still looks new, quality is superb. Passport fits perfectly in hip pockets and snacks and earbud case. Very light and comfortable. My bag was roughly 25- 40 pounds at all times. Perfect for long trips( 10+ days)

Worked well last year on the Camino Frances over 41 days. Easy to carry and organize over several weeks. Nothing got wet, but I had mostly light rain. No rips or tears. I carried about 20 lbs, including water. I bought the pack in 2022 and used it from April to June in France and Spain. Great pack.

[ About this for my kindergarten who was obsessed with dinosaurs. I absolutely love it and so does he! It ’s a great size for kids… I will say that his teacher wants him to use a three ring binder and it barely fits in the backpack. I ’ m gon na continue to try to make it work this year cause it ’s so adorable!

I love the bag, the quality and comfort as well as the built in features, like the separate valuables pouch, the sunglass compartment and especially the rod holders because they allow me to keep my hands free to carry anything else or better yet, keep me safe while walking to the fishing spot. Whether it is fishing the local ponds or rivers, this is your go to bag.

The 1st version of the Distance 15 was already my favourite do- it- all mountain pack. This new version includes a revamped front pocket design with more room and options for storage. Slightly elongated shape fits more comfortably against your back, and the main closure loop is now raised so it is easier to attach the G hook/buckle.

5 Li W.
This is an amazing pack. The best system is very comfortable and keeps the pack from moving when going fast. The compression system keeps the weight close to your body. I have used it for hiking and running, and plan to use it for skiing and climbing as well.

5 Jeff
This is an update to my previous review. This version 2 does have an internal bladder sleeve and hose routing port, Nice! They 've aligned everything here, a super sweet pack. Maybe they should mention that this bladder sleeve exists in some of the marketing... thanks BD!

5 mountaindocdanny
I 've used this pack for a year now. It is my daily commuting pack for biking, running, or skiing to work year round in Anchorage. I also use this pack regularly for scrambling and climbing in the Chugach as well. The build quality is excellent and despite having probably 340- 350 user days it shows no significant signs of wear. It will bounce a little with running when I have more than 10 pounds or so in it, but this is minimal and manageable. Holds enough gear for a layer, foul weather gear, and some minimal technical gear for a day in the mountains. The water bottle pockets in the front fit a can of bear spray nicely, especially appreciated when negotiating dense alder thickets in bear country. Highly recommended!

5 Jun T.
I 've been searching small backpack for trail running for a while. I do n't like just a vest with some pockets but preferably small size backpack. Distance 15 is fit like a shirts and no compression by shoulder and west belts. While running/hiking, it became a part of my body. I really like the fitting mechanism. I 'm happy with this backpack.

The color seems to look more like a purple than burgundy but it ’s still very pretty! The size was perfect! We didn ’ t need a huge backpack.

This bag is just the right size to handle everything a high schooler carries every day without being too bulky. It is also great for business travel with a laptop and tablet, with plenty of room for other necessities. The drink holders on the sides are flexible at the top and accomodate a variety of containers easily.

[ I did n't really start appreciating this backpack until I started to use it more. At first glance, it does n't seem that special, but once you really dig in, load up your stuff, test out the comfort, and then see how nice it stays, you 'll realize that High Sierra is trying to improve on a good product. All these little details add up to a compelling product that I 'm willing to pay extra for. I do n't think I 'll need a new backpack for a while since this pack is built pretty well. I 'm glad I have this one!

5 Komi
[ I 'm in love with this bag from High Sierra. The pastel blue color is so refreshing. The material of the bag is quite sturdy and it is very spacious. The cushioned back is the icing on the cake. It has multiple small and big zipper pockets to keep all kinds of stuff. I can use it to carry my laptop to work and also as a backpack for leisure trips. I really recommend this product to others.

5 BabiieKakesxOx
[ This backpack is awesome! The amount of pockets in it is incredible! Large pockets for my laptop, and smaller accessible ones for my charging cables and accessories. The backpack also has 2 water bottle/umbrella holders which you do n't see often on laptop bags. This backpack will also multi purpose as a nice hiking backpack due to its easy access pockets, breathable shoulder straps and drop proof bottom design. I am very happy with this item on so many levels.

5 HoneyBuns
[ I got this Swerve Pro for Free for a honest review from@ TryItsampling and@ HighSierria. I love that it has 5 pockets of different sizes pockets in the backpack And the straps has a band to help stabilize it to your back if u want to use it and the straps are wide and is cushioned to help with the straps being on yuppie shoulders it is real high quailty of a backpack i was really amazed that they added the extra support on the shoulder strap to help with the ease of it being on your shoulders.

5 Jennee4
[ This backpack is super cute! It is not overly cumbersome and has room for all my items. I use this as a carry on for air travel and it holds a lot. The purple color is very stylish. Definitely becoming one of my favorite backpacks!

[ Overall quality is great. Exactly what i expect from Osprey, not to mention their warranty is amazing. The bag is perfect, although I have n't tested it as a carry on yet, I 've measured it and see no reason it wo n't get through.

[ Perfect for the conscientious traveler. Lots of room for the essential items. Compression straps hold everything tight. Worked great for weekend outing and spring break trip. Not recommended for hiking trips but the perfect hands free carry size for road trips or flights.

5 David R.

5 Jason B.
[ Excellent rugged bag. Worked well as a carry- on for plane and train travel overseas. Sufficient room for a several day trip. Well thought out design. Would like to see a better design for tucking the waist strap, I found that problematic, but otherwise, highly recommended. Backpack is comfortable and adjustable to your needs. Would purchase again.

[ I bought this a few weeks ago and it is a great pack. The most comfortable pack I have worn. It is very spacious and easy access to the main compartment. One downfall to this pack is it's lack of smaller compartments for all the smaller items that you want separated from the main compartment

5 BaltimoreBeaver
[ I bought this backpack to use in a Scouting Troop and it was a huge success. It is perfectly sized for a weekend backpacking trip( 3 days) which we used on the Appalachian Train. It is really comfortable- like having a pillow on your back- and I have a `` shotty '' back. The weight is evenly distributed through the hip pads. I got the XL size because I am 6' 3 and 275 pounds and it fits great. There are a lot of cool features too and as an added bonus it comes with a raincover too. I am thinking about getting another Osprey soon- a larger one. Seriously, this is a great pack and they have a great warranty too- lifetime.

5 DBT43
[ The most functional pack I have owned. Tons of pockets and straps to ensure maximum functionality. Would highly recommend. Very comfortable yet robust for the grind.

5 Gblhouse
[ This brand is amazing! Long lasting, comfortable, lots of pockets! Did 30 miles with this pack on the Pacific Crest Trail, didn ’ t disappoint! Happy Camper!

5 Big Willie
[ Wow where to start with the beautiful piece of craftsmanship. I have used the pack for several adventures and it has performed great. I used it to haul climbing gear for a day of climbing. I ’ m a skinny guy with a longish torso and usually have trouble finding packs that are long enough and still sinch down enough around the waist. I used the back pack on a multi day unicorn hunt. I was able to pack all my camping gear and food for five days. My hunt was successful and I was even able to pack out my unicorn head for the taxidermist. I ’ d recommend this pack to anyone looking for a tough reliable pack.

Frequently Asked Questions For Wilderness Backpacks

When selecting a wilderness backpack, consider features such as capacity, weight distribution, and comfort. Look for adjustable straps and a padded back panel for support during long hikes. Additionally, consider compartments for organization and hydration compatibility to keep you prepared for various outdoor activities.

Wilderness backpacks are typically made from durable materials like nylon or polyester, which offer resistance to wear and tear. Many backpacks also feature water-resistant coatings or waterproof materials to protect your gear from the elements. It's important to choose a material that balances durability with weight for optimal performance.

The right size wilderness backpack depends on the duration of your trips and the amount of gear you need to carry. For day hikes, a smaller capacity of 20-30 liters may suffice, while multi-day excursions may require 50 liters or more. Consider your personal comfort and the type of gear you typically bring when selecting the size.

A daypack is designed for short excursions and typically has a smaller capacity, making it lightweight and easy to carry. In contrast, a multi-day wilderness backpack is larger, allowing for more gear and supplies, and often includes features like a frame for better support. Understanding your intended use will help you choose the right type.

Wilderness backpacks are versatile and can be used for various outdoor activities, including hiking, camping, and backpacking. However, the specific design and features may cater to different activities, so it's essential to choose one that aligns with your intended use. Look for backpacks that offer comfort and functionality for your specific outdoor adventures.

To ensure comfort during long hikes, look for a wilderness backpack with adjustable straps, a padded hip belt, and a ventilated back panel. Proper fit is crucial, so try on the backpack with weight to see how it feels. Additionally, consider the weight distribution and make sure the pack allows for movement without restriction.
