Mountain and Hiking Poles Online
Designed for walking in natural environments, mountain poles provide stable support on slopes and control on descents. They are made of chestnut wood (Castanea sativa, the scientific name for chestnut, from southern Europe) and of hazel (Corylus avellana, the scientific name for hazel, native to Europe and Western Asia), selected for their tenacity and good tolerance to humidity. Depending on the model, the following are also used ash (Fraxinus excelsior, the scientific name for ash, from Europe) and oak (Quercus robur, the scientific name for oak, from Europe). The stick is turned and polished with respect for the grain for a natural balance; crook or pommel grips ensure a reliable grip even when wearing gloves. The metal tip and interchangeable rubber rubber tip and interchangeable rubber tip improve grip on rock, dirt or asphalt. Available in several lengths: choose your size from the drop-down menu to adjust the pole to your height and the terrain. A sturdy companion with character for the mountains.
