Clean drinking water is not as common as one might hope. Increased visitor numbers to hiking areas can burden natural waters. Sensitive individuals may experience symptoms from even minor exposure to microbes.
Boiling water is one option to avoid problems, but on a summer trip where you want fresh, cool water, a portable filter is an excellent piece of equipment!
Water purification tablets are suitable for short-term use. Unlike filters, they add a bit of their own flavor to the water, but tablets are by far the lightest portable filtration method.
Our selection includes models from very light and small to larger ones that operate by pumping or gravity. The more you anticipate using a filter, the more it's worth investing in.
Swiss Katadyn, American MSR, and Swiss-American LifeStraw have been selected for our range based on quality, convenience, and availability of spare parts.
