Frequently Asked Questions About Outdoor Backpacks

What size backpack do I need for my outdoor activities?

For day trips, a 20–30-liter capacity is usually sufficient, while multi-day trekking trips typically require 40–50 liters. A compact daypack is ideal for short hikes with snacks and a rain jacket. For longer outdoor adventures that include an overnight stay, you’ll need additional storage space for a sleeping bag and a change of clothes. The right backpack size always depends on the length of the trip and your gear. For winter trips, it’s also worth checking out our winter cycling gloves —warm, grippy, and specially designed for cold temperatures.

What makes a good outdoor backpack?

A high-quality outdoor backpack stands out thanks to durable materials like nylon or polyester, a ventilated back system, and padded shoulder straps. Practical features like side pockets, a rain cover, and an ergonomic hip belt ensure optimal weight distribution. Waterproof properties and reflective elements further enhance safety in changing weather conditions. If you’re often out and about on your bike, it’s also worth checking out our waterproof bike bags, which can be used flexibly as backpacks.

How should an outdoor backpack fit properly?

An outdoor backpack should fit snugly against your back, with the hip belt resting on your hip bones and supporting most of the weight. The padded shoulder straps should not dig in or cause pressure points. An adjustable carrying system allows you to customize the fit to your back length. Ideally, the center of gravity should be close to your body to ensure stability and balance.

Are outdoor backpacks waterproof?

Valkental ’s outdoor backpacks are splash-proof and reliably protect their contents in light rain and during everyday use. For heavier or prolonged rainfall, a rain cover is included that completely covers the backpack, providing effective protection against the elements. Reflective elements also improve visibility in low-light conditions. By the way: If you regularly ride your bike at dusk or in the dark, you’ll also find reflective bike bags here to complement your gear.

What features does the Explorer V22 backpack offer?

The Explorer V22 stands out with its well-designed features for everyday use and outdoor activities. These include stowable hip belts for greater freedom of movement, a cleverly structured compartment system for optimal organization, and a practical wet compartment at the bottom. With a 22-liter capacity, it offers ample storage space and can be expanded with a sling bag if needed—ideal for flexible trips and spontaneous adventures.

How do I properly care for my outdoor backpack?

Clean your backpack regularly with lukewarm water and mild soap, and avoid harsh cleaning agents. Let it air dry completely—not in direct sunlight or on a radiator. Check the zippers and buckles regularly to make sure they’re working properly.
