Built for the Trail. Engineered for You.
Aircraft-Grade Aluminum Core
Forged from 6061-series aluminum alloy, each ApexTrek pole delivers structural toughness that holds up to years of rugged use. You get lasting performance without carrying the weight penalty of older-generation materials.
Instant One-Collar Height Lock
Changing terrain no longer means stopping to fight with your gear. One flip of the quick-lock collar adjusts your pole anywhere between 95 and 135cm, snapping securely into place in under five seconds.
Tungsten Carbide Tip Grip
Where standard steel tips slide, ApexTrek's tungsten carbide points bite in and hold — on wet rock, loose shale, and packed mud alike. Every plant gives you a stable push-off you can actually rely on.
Fatigue-Free EVA Handles
The contoured EVA foam handle pulls sweat away from your palm, maintaining a firm, natural grip even on long climbs. Your hands stay comfortable so your focus stays on the summit.

What height range do the poles adjust to?

How much does each pole weigh?
How much does each pole weigh?
Each pole weighs just 280 grams — roughly the weight of a large apple. That ultralight feel adds up to a huge difference over a long day on the trail, especially on multi-day treks where pack weight matters most.
Do the tips hold up on rocky surfaces?
Do the tips hold up on rocky surfaces?
Absolutely. The tungsten carbide tips are specifically chosen for their exceptional hardness and wear resistance. They grip rocky terrain firmly without chipping or dulling the way softer metal tips do, delivering reliable traction hike after hike.
Are the grips comfortable for all-day use?
Are the grips comfortable for all-day use?
Yes — the EVA foam handles are contoured to fit naturally in your hand and actively wick moisture away from your palm. Most users report noticeably less hand fatigue compared to standard cork or rubber grips on extended outings.
How quickly can I adjust the height on the go?
How quickly can I adjust the height on the go?
The quick-lock collar opens and closes with a single flip of your thumb. In practice, most people complete a full height adjustment in under five seconds — no tools, no screws, no stopping to figure it out mid-trail.
Do the poles perform well in wet or muddy conditions?
Do the poles perform well in wet or muddy conditions?
Yes. The tungsten carbide tips bite into wet rock and muddy paths where smooth tips would slip. The EVA grips also maintain their hold when wet, so rain or sweat won't compromise your control during the descent.
Can I get replacement parts if something wears out?
Can I get replacement parts if something wears out?
Yes. Replacement tips, wrist straps, and pole caps are all available separately so you never have to replace the entire pole due to normal wear. Your ApexTrek poles are built to last, and we back that up with accessible spare parts.
