The Grivel Trail Pole is a little bit different from your standard hiking pole. It features a special ‘knee joint’ which makes folding up the pole quick and easy. It’s extremely strong and durable, designed for big days out on rugged terrain. The three way foldable pole is the smallest in the range and will fit easily into a small back pack. An elastic strap at the top holds the pole together when folded so you can run with it in your hands or in your pack and it won’t come apart. The pole comes in a one, two or three piece foldable design, a very adaptable range for all your needs.
