Lightweight, very functional backpack for demanding alpinists
Highlights
- Lightweight, minimalist design
- Swisswool HYBRID BACK SYSTEM ensures comfortable wearing
- Made with recycled materials
With the PEAK LIGHT 32 the name says it all: Made for the most demanding summit projects in the high mountains, the lightweight, robust alpine touring backpack comes without unnecessary bells and whistles and convinces with all important holders, its minimalist design and low weight. All those who want to save additional weight can remove the hip belt, lid and back reinforcement, ice axe holder and D-Skifix. In this way, the already low weight can be reduced by another 30% in no time at all. Another special feature is the innovative Swisswool HYBRID BACK SYSTEM: At the particularly stressed contact areas, three soft Swisswool pads ensure a comfortable fit and a good body climate by absorbing a lot of humidity without feeling wet. This means that even strenuous passages on the mountain can be mastered comfortably and the next summit is guaranteed to be a pleasure. Crafted from 100% and 50% recycled polyamide, the two main outer materials ensure outstanding robustness.
The sophisticated features, the low weight and the innovative back system make the PEAK LIGHT 32 a highly functional backpack for alpinists, where renunciation stands for more function.

A well constructed and comfortable pack.
I recently bought the Peak Light 32, in the color red, because that color is easy to spot. I wanted to try this pack out mainly because of the very practical J zipper, that makes getting into the pack extremely easy. I have to admit that the thought of a zipper that long, and placed the way it is, was a little scary. What if the pack is bursting with gear, and the zipper breaks? Loosing your gear in the high mountains could represent a major problem, and the thought wasn’t lost on me. However, Ortovox, and others have been using this kind of zipper for a number of years, and if the construction didn’t work, they would probably have changed the concept altogether. Now, after having tested the pack out, I can say that the zipper is extremely practical, and makes getting into the pack a breeze. And as long as the pack is not bursting to the brim, it’s no problem closing the zipper as well. Besides that, the pack is very comfortable to wear. On one of my mountain adventures, the pack weighed 11 kg, and I was out for more than 11 hours. At the end of the day, I had no aches or pains, and my shoulders were totally fine (the shoulder straps are very well constructed). The pack has an aluminum frame, and it was easy to shape it to fit my back exactly. The lid has a nice and spacious pocket on top, and a smaller pocked underneath. The pocket on the hip belt can also hold a few snacks, and the zipper is easy to manipulate. The Peak Light 32 is a very nice and practical pack, and I’m very happy with my purchase. The only things I would recommend changing is the length of the side compression straps. Both straps should be longer, so it’s possible to attach a ground mat to the side of the pack, and the lower side compression strap should have a G hook as well. I solved the ground mat situation by attaching a bungee cord to the non zippered side and using that to attach the ground mat (it’s an easy fix). I also cut off the bottom slider buckle on the other side, and replaced it with another G hook to make it easier to attach my hiking poles (also an easy fix). I’ve now carried the pack for a number of hours, and I have yet to find any cons. If it wasn’t comfortable, I wouldn’t wear it. And it’s very practical as well, so I have to give it two thumbs up.
