Description

The CamelBak Arete 18 is an ultralight hiking pack with a 1.5 L reservoir, made from breathable, compressible material. It is built for day hikes, packs down to next to nothing when you travel, and takes a laptop up to 38 cm (15 in) once you lift the reservoir out.

Who it's for

Day hikers and travellers who want one pack for both. The Arete 18 is ready for a short walk or a long-distance trek, then packs down to next to nothing when you travel abroad. It comes in Rust and Aster.

Capacity, and what actually fits

  • Water: 1.5 L reservoir, with the tube running out to your shoulder strap.
  • Laptop: take the reservoir out and the pack holds a laptop up to 38 cm (15 in) securely.
  • Everything else: plenty of cargo space stays free for your other essentials, even with the laptop in.

How it carries

Lightweight, breathable material keeps the Arete 18 easy on your back through a warm day on the trail, and the same compressible construction lets it pack down small.

From the trail to travel

We stock the Arete 18 for people who hate packing a second bag. Hike with the reservoir in, swap it for your laptop when you need to, and pack the whole thing down small when you travel abroad.
