Winter Poles

Snow Adventure Equipment: Winter Poles

Tackle snowy terrain with our high-performance winter poles. At Oz Backcountry we sell top-spec poles to help you navigate the slopes and trek through snowy trails. These products are designed to give you stability and aid performance as you ski, or hike.

But what makes a great set of winter poles? Well, make sure that the length of the poles are suitable for your height. Luckily for you, our shop stocks winter poles that can be easily adjusted to suit your height. Buying winter poles with this handy feature ensures that the length will fit you perfectly.

Other ergonomic features include the wrist strap and handle. Fitting comfortably in your hands, these are designed to prevent blisters and fatigue on long treks and trails. Made from high-quality materials like rubber, foam, or cork, these handles provide a secure, non-slip grip. This ensures you can maintain control even in wet or cold conditions.

While winter poles can be attached to your hiking backpack , there is also another option for carrying them. Some varieties are foldable. These winter poles collapse in on themselves in 4 sections to make them even easier to transport. Foldable or not, browse our range to find the right type of winter pole for you.

Transportability is one thing but have you considered the weight of your poles? The lighter the pole, the less effort you exert and the more energy you conserve. We sell lightweight poles that won’t add any unnecessary grams to your kit. Add them to your snow gear kit and you won’t notice any difference in weight.

Look out for poles made from carbon fiber and aluminium for an ultra-light feel. Aluminium is a more affordable option. Whereas carbon fiber is the premium option, perfect for high-performance activities. 

Sick of sinking too deep in soft snow? Try out larger snow baskets on your winter poles. These are added to the end of poles to distribute the weight of the pole over a larger surface area. Larger baskets are particularly helpful when snowshoeing through deep drifts of soft snow.
