Leki Khumbu Lite AS poles

The Khumbu Lite AS is a light but reliable companion, a trekking pole for any mountain adventure. On long and demanding hikes it is important to protect joints and ligaments: the DSS anti-shock system, integrated above the tip, takes care of this. The Aergon CorTec handle offers a perfect grip and ensures good handling of the pole.
