Skytera Lite Trekking Poles

The Skytera Lite is LEKI's answer to fast-and-light hiking and alpine travel — a three-piece telescoping pole built from HTS 6.5 heat-treated aluminum that handles heavy loads without the weight penalty. New for 2026, it pairs that proven shaft construction with the updated Verticon grip: precision-molded 1K foam that weighs just one ounce (strap included), shaped for a secure, natural hold during high-output movement. The breathable D-Loop mesh strap keeps things comfortable on sweaty days. Speed Lock Plus handles length adjustment in seconds — even with gloves on — across a 90–125 cm or 100–135 cm range. At under 8 ounces per pole, there's not much to leave at home.
