Ultralight backpacking gear on a budget – My cheap hiking gear list
Ultralight backpacking gear doesn’t have to be expensive. You can still find some seriously light weight and cheap backpacking gear at good prices if you’re on a budget.
In this video, I show you a bunch of professional-grade hiking and trekking gear that’s cheap and of a good quality. It’s perfect for long distance overnight hiking and wild camping and won’t cost you lots of money.
Other ultralight backpacking gear can cost over £1000 just for the tent and the backpack! This hiking kit list has all of that and more for just £400.00
BTW, I MADE THIS INCREDIBLE BIT OF GEAR

I remember everest trekk
How are you my friend.I can not find in facebook
Good briefing
I always love a good kit review and this made the cut. My newest favorite piece of gear is my 60L Outdoor Vitals Shadowlight backpack followed closely with a pair of Enlightened Equipment Down Booties. Take Care
Thank you for the advice 🙂
That backpack alone weighs 1,2 kg and you call that ultralight?! If I'm not wrong, most 40L non-ultralight hiking bags have the same weight. If you really want to go for ultralight on a budget, check out some real deal affordable ultralight backpacks like Granite Gear Virga 2 , Granite Gear Crown 2 , Dan Durston Drop 40L, … Yes they do not cost 40 dollars but they are still the cheapest ultralight hiking bags out there.
For the rain jacket, if you want a nicer one I brought a gortex navy surplus jacket for £20 online. Needed re coating in nikwax but lasted years
Thank you for this video, your channel is very helpful
Subscribed 10 seconds in when I felt the energy of your intro! Great video, thanks
The Mountain Warehouse Extreme Lightweight Down Sleeping Bag is now £95
I have the On hiking boots, without watching your review and not really thinking about budget. I paid £180 for a pair of hiking boots (actually brought two pairs) but having had their trainers in the past I know that they don’t need any breaking in and they are super light which were at the top of my wish list. Would be great/interesting if you could review them especially as they are an ethical company
A $400 tent is not a "budget" tent lol
Brilliant videos , just subscribed so I don’t miss any. Thank you for your advice. 👍🇬🇧
So helpful thank you!
Can you do a "4 season" Ultralight gear list please…
any shoe similar to the ones you mentioned available in Canada? way to expensive with import fees to get the ones u mention
Depending on weather and location i take a hammock and basha or use the basha as a ground sheet if taking a 1 man tent. Just abit choice depnding and versatile, great vid 👍
Great video you just saved me £550 off My first ever camping gear purchase, thank you.
You CAN filter a lifetime worth of water with that Sawyer Mini … but it will take you a dozen lifetimes to do it because of the flow rate. And that's assuming you're good about backflushing it after every use or so.
The last thing I wanted to do at the end of the day when I wanted to get to bed in my tent was to spend dozens of minutes filtering a few litres of water for the next day. Just get the standard, larger Sawyer Squeeze and save yourself the aggravation.
Super video. You have a great back log of material. Thank you for all your efforts.
Nice quality video, I already have most of it I'm just not totally sure about picking the right bag to put on my motorcycle for tours. But now I think a 50L drybag will be enough. (And I also have 20L storage space in my bike)
hi, im a new fan of you, youre english is very inspirative and powerful. love your vids
