FAQs

A 50L bag can be a good option for hiking where the hiker has to carry many items. It’s specifically great for overnight tramping trips or those who pack ultralight in multi day trips. The answer to this question depends on factors such as the length of the trip, the person asked, and other factors. Generally, for a 1-2 day trip, a 50 Litre is big enough.
There is not much difference between a 30L and a 20L hiking pack. There is a difference of 200g between the weights of the packs. However, a 30L will allow its users to pack more items into it. If you are travelling with children, you can use the bag to relieve their bags of some weight. 30L bags are good options for fast hikers.
A 40L hiking backpack in NZ is more or less a good option for a one-day hike. That way there is ample space for extra food and other items that can protect you from unpleasant changes in the weather. In case you do not pack anything too heavy, 40L bags are ideal for a one-day hiking trip. These bags will also not make you slow down as they are not that heavy.
A tramping pack of 21L to 35L is ideal for keeping food, clothes, and other items such as emergency items, cameras, and more. Bags of such capacities are good enough for a one-day hike.
