Imbued with LEKI’s legendary reliability and durability the Khumbu Lite’s are an excellent all-rounder.

Leki says: 

The lightweight version of the Khumbu supports you while trekking with a full range of features: a comfortable Aergon CorTec grip, Speed Lock+ adjustment system for easy adjustment of the pole length, and lightweight yet stable tubes made from high-strength aluminum. An absolute all-rounder to keep you safe on the mountain!

Our Verdict

Leki’s Khumbu Lite Trekking Poles are an entry level trekking pole but they are still an excellent product with LEKI’s legendary quality. Featuring dual Lever Locks for continuous adjustment of the pole lengths and a solid grip.We like that they are adjustable up to 135cm so will suit taller people and if you do use trekking poles to support your shelter the extra length will be welcome.

The Khumbu Lite are a workhorse.
