Built for the long way up.

Haldenreach makes hardwearing packs, tents, layers and camp kit for hill walkers and backpackers. The gear is tested on steep ground and made to last, and it's sold after a conversation, not a checkout.

Why Haldenreach

Tested where the path runs out.

Every Haldenreach piece goes on the same test route before it's sold: a steep climb, a long exposed ridge and a wet descent. If it doesn't feel right by the last kilometre, it goes back to the drawing board.

Carries wellFitted harnesses and load lifters, and weight kept where it should be.
Takes weatherWater-resistant fabrics, taped seams and storm-proof pitches.
Lasts yearsRecycled, repairable materials, plus spare buckles and poles for life.

About Haldenreach

Named for the slope ahead.

"Halden" is an old word for a hillside, the steep ground between the valley floor and the ridge. "Reach" is what you do when you're climbing it. Haldenreach is gear for that part of the day: the long, honest climb that makes the view worth it.

We're a small team of hill walkers and backpackers. We make a short range of gear, test it properly and help each customer choose what they actually need. Then we help keep it going with repairs and spare parts for years.

Reports from the ridge.

Ridgeline 38 · 4-day hut trip

"They asked about my torso length and my route before I ordered. The pack fitted perfectly on day one and still felt good on day four."

Henrik AasCustomer · Bergen
Crest 2 Tent · wild camp

"We pitched it fly-first in sideways rain. Everything inside stayed dry, and so did our tempers."

Megan PryceCustomer · Snowdonia
Stormline Half-Zip · daily use

"I've been wearing it on every hike for a year. When a zip pull broke, they posted a spare the same week."
