Exped Lightning 50L

The Exped Lightning 50 is an ultralight trekking backpack engineered for long mountain tours where every gram matters and comfort cannot be compromised. Its height-adjustable T-Rex carry system pairs an aluminium frame with a rigid top crossbar to transfer load efficiently into a padded hip belt, providing stable, agile handling on varied terrain.

On the trail, the low-contact back panel promotes airflow and freedom of movement, while zig-zag compression straps and a roll-top closure let you tailor pack volume to the trip. A stretch front pocket, shoulder-strap pocket, side bottle pockets, and zippered hipbelt pockets keep essentials organised, and the hydration-system-compatible compartment is easily accessible from the outside.

From rocky alpine paths to multi-day trekking routes, the Lightning 50 delivers dependable load control and convenient access to gear. Modular attachment points and a flexible compression system also make it easy to secure sleeping mats or tarps, ensuring the pack adapts to the journey.
