Ortovox HAUTE ROUTE 40

The Haute Route has been around since the inception of ski touring. Our proven classic is perfect for longer ski traverses.

With the use of Cordura and PFC-free double-layered 420D Oxford polyamide, the Haute Route 40 is extremely abrasion-resistant and additionally water-repellent thanks to the PU coating on all fabrics. Load control straps and the O-Flex-2 back system with an ergonomic fit and an S-shaped stabilizer ensure an optimal fit, distributing weight evenly between the hips and shoulders even over long periods. The hip fins also connect internally to the back system, allowing them to wrap around the body seamlessly and comfortably.

With its larger volume, the Haute Route 40 can accommodate everything you need. The spacious main compartment is accessible from the top and the back, ensuring that all your items are quickly at hand, while a separate safety compartment guarantees quick access to emergency equipment. Thanks to the rope fixation on the backpack lid, a carried rope can be quickly packed or unpacked without having to open the lid. In addition to ice axe and pole attachments, as well as a fixed helmet net, there are also flexible carrying attachments available, for example, for a snowboard. Skis can be attached both traditionally and diagonally to the ski touring backpack.

No matter how long and challenging the journey may be, with the Haute Route 40, you are well-equipped for any multi-day tour.
