SPORTS & FITNESS

TREKKING POLES: ARE THEY FOR YOU?

We’ve all seen them. Skinny sticks resembling ski poles that are often seen in the 
hands of hikers. They may seem unnecessary but offer benefits like improved 
stability, reduced joint strain, and increased overall fitness.

Trekking poles (also known as walking sticks/poles, hiking sticks/poles or trail 
poles) may seem simple, but can greatly impact your hiking experience. One of the 
main benefits is the added stability they provide. When navigating uneven terrain, 
crossing streams, or descending steep slopes, having an extra point of contact with 
the ground can help you maintain balance and prevent falls. This is especially 
important for those new to hiking or concerned about balance.

Hiking poles also help distribute the workload across your entire body. Without 
poles, your legs do most of the work, but using them allows your arms and upper 
body to share the effort. This not only gives your legs a break but also engages your 
core muscles and improves overall endurance. By sharing the load, you can hike 
longer distances with less fatigue.

Another significant benefit is the reduced impact on your joints, particularly your 
knees. When hiking downhill, the impact on your knees can be intense, leading 
to soreness and potential injuries. Trekking poles help absorb some of the shock, 
making your hike more comfortable and less stressful on your joints.

Not all walking poles are created equal, and choosing the right pair can make a big 
difference in your experience. When selecting poles, consider a few key factors.

First, think about the material. Most trekking poles are made from either aluminum 
or carbon fiber. Aluminum poles are generally more affordable and durable, though 
slightly heavier. Carbon fiber poles are lighter and easier to carry but can be more expensive and less durable if not well cared for.

Next, consider adjustability. Many walking poles are adjustable, allowing you to change their length based on the terrain. For example, 
shorter poles are better for uphill climbs, while longer poles are ideal for descents. Adjustable poles are versatile and can be used by 
people of different heights, making them a great choice for families or groups.

The grip is another important feature. Trekking pole grips are typically made from foam, cork, or rubber. Foam grips are soft and 
absorb moisture, making them comfortable for long hikes. Cork grips conform to your hand over time and provide a natural feel, while 
rubber grips are durable and great for cold, wet conditions.

Trekking poles aren’t just for expert hikers; they’re valuable for all fitness levels. Beginners can gain confidence tackling more 
challenging trails with the extra stability poles provide. Intermediate hikers can push themselves further, knowing they have support 
for longer hikes. For advanced trekkers, poles can enhance endurance and make navigating difficult terrain easier.

Trail runners can also benefit from trekking poles. They allow runners to maintain speed while adding stability on uneven ground. 
Using poles, trail runners can reduce joint impact and keep a steady pace, even on tough trails.

Older adults often face challenges with balance and joint pain, which can make outdoor activities difficult. Using poles can address 
these issues, making it easier to stay active and enjoy nature. The added stability helps prevent falls, while the reduced impact on knees 
and hips makes walking and hiking more comfortable.

Incorporating trekking poles into your routine is also a great way to maintain upper body strength. Engaging all muscle groups is 
essential, and these poles can help do just that. For older adults who want to stay fit and enjoy the outdoors, trekking poles are a simple 
but effective tool.

While trekking poles are most commonly associated with hiking, they can be used in various workouts. Nordic walking, for example, 
involves walking with poles and provides a full-body workout that improves cardiovascular fitness and builds strength. Walking poles 
can also be used in regular walking workouts to add an extra challenge and engage the upper body.

Additionally, poles can be used as a stability aid during stretching exercises. If you’re working on balance or flexibility, the poles can 
help you maintain your posture and stretch more effectively. This versatility makes trekking poles a useful addition to any fitness 
routine, whether on the trail or at home.

Trekking poles are a valuable tool for anyone looking to enhance their outdoor fitness experience. Whether hiking, trail running, or 
walking for exercise, they provide stability, reduce joint impact, and engage your entire body. With the right pair of poles, you can 
explore new trails, push your limits, and enjoy the beauty of nature with confidence. Price for a quality pair ranges from $30-$199.
