Why We Like The Trail Back Trekking Poles

We give our joints a little relief with the Black Diamond Trail Back Trekking Poles. The three-section design and reliable FlickLock extension system means we can pack them down and throw them on the pack when we need our hands free during those steep, scrambly sections of trail. We like that the molded rubber grips have a soft EVA foam extension so we can choke up on them when we're side-hilling.

Review of Black Diamond trail Series Trekking Poles

These are very sturdy, strong poles, and they look great. The grip is fine. And the flicklock adjustment for the poles look strong. These poles should last a long time on the trail.

Trail Trekking poles

Just used them to hike Mount Price in California. Very nice! I hope to be snow shoeing soon with these poles

Trekkers

My girlfriend and I just used these on a long weekend hike and we loved them. We had multiple creek crossings, different surfaces and all surfaces under different stages of wet (rain, hail and snow), and these were the best addition to have. Sturdy yet flexible. The flick lock system seems super sturdy too. I wish these would have come with a set of rubber caps for the carbide tips, but I would 10/10 buy these again. Excited to use them during hunting season.

Great product

Nice inexpensive hiking poles. Flint lock design for easy adjustment. I recommend flint lock design for heavy duty hiking. I also recommend aluminum design for hiking in rocky areas, Nevada for one. I have had multiple carbon poles break due to stress and scrapes.

Trail Back Poles

Tested these out on a 7.1 mile hike and they are awesome. I tripped a couple times on the trail and put most of my (175lbs) on them and they didn’t bend, snap, or collapse. Awesome poles!

Got these for the approach

Got these for the approach to taquitz. They make a big difference, definitely take some of the weight off your knees. Highly recommend!

Form & Function

Reliable, sturdy, comfortable non-slip grip, and a snap to use! Great for trail hiking or backcountry skiing. Collapses down to fit along the side of my pack when not in use. Highly recommend these poles for your standard backcountry adventuring!

Great Poles at a Great Price

As a novice hiker, I really wanted a budget-friendly trekking pole option and the Trail Back is perfect! Long mountain descents are so much easier on my knees and I also love added stability they provide in loose and sketchy conditions. They are light weight and well built and I'd recommend them to anyone!

Lifesavers!

This is my second pair of poles from Black Diamond. I am certain they have saved me from injury (or worse) several times on winter hikes especially. The grips are great. The metal tips (that bite and stabilize on ice) are indestructible. The straps are eternal. The poles themselves will bend but never break. And the adjustment clips are ideal. I would not buy any other brand. Sturdy, lightweight, durable, safe and affordable!
