An updated classic, Fjällräven has wholly revamped the Abisko Hike 35's fit and feature set. It's still a versatile, comfortable day pack for lighter hikes and cabin-to-cabin trekking, but it now has a few more user-friendly features
Fjallraven says:
Abisko Hike 35 is a versatile backpack perfect for cabin-to-cabin hikes and lightweight trekking. Made from 100% recycled nylon, this backpack has an adjustable back length system with ventila- ting air mesh on the back panel, shoulder straps, and hip belt. It has a top-loaded main compart- ment with front zipper and the top-lid with bungy cord has two zippered pockets. There are two sleeve pockets inside the main compartment and a zippered inside pocket that is easily accessed
from the front opening and top. The two oversized side pockets are great for carrying bottles and there are also two pockets on the supportive hip belt. Attachment on the front of the backpack for a trekking pole or ice axe. Hydration system compatible. Rain cover included.
Our Verdict
This is a hard-wearing, sturdy pack, not the lightest on the market, but that isn't what it has been designed for; it uses 100% polyamide 210D Ripstop, so you know you will get a lot of use from this bag.
It's a 35L capacity pack perfect for day hikes and one-night camps if you are minimalistic with your packing. I loaded the pack up with about 6k in it to see how well it carries its weight, and it's a very comfortable pack that spreads its weight onto your hips and over your upper body well. Unlike the last Abisko, the back length is now adjustable, so you get a more tailored fit, which improves how well the pack carries its loads.
The back and shoulder straps are lightly padded, and another addition over the last Abisko, Fjallraven has added hip belt pockets, which are made of mesh so you can see what you have stashed in each one.
