Why you should use a sled on your winter trip

Derfor bør du bruke pulk på vinterturen

When the snow settles and the mountains beckon, many pack their bags and set off on winter adventures. But why carry a heavy pack when you can pull your gear along? A sled gives you the freedom to pack more, go further, and enjoy the trip without unnecessary strain.

Less strain, more comfort

Pulling a sled instead of carrying a heavy pack can significantly reduce the strain on your shoulders and back. This makes it easier to maintain balance in challenging terrain and provides a more comfortable hiking experience – especially on longer trips.

Space for everything you need

With a sled, you don't have to worry as much about weight restrictions. Tents, sleeping bags, food and extra clothes can fit without having to compress and cut down on your equipment. This is especially useful for families with children or for those who like a little extra comfort on a trip.

Perfect for varied conditions

The winter mountains offer everything from crusty to loose powder snow, and a sled is designed to glide smoothly in various conditions. The mountain sled models are made for stability, so you can navigate through challenging terrain without the load becoming an obstacle.

Children on a trip? A sled makes it easier!

For small children who cannot walk long distances on their own, a children's sled is a perfect solution. With a comfortable and insulated sled, children can enjoy the trip safely and warmly, while parents can go at their own pace.

Which sled is right for you?

Whether you're going on a short family trip or an expedition to the polar regions, there's a sled to suit your needs. From lightweight touring sleds to sturdy expedition models – Fjellpulken has a wide selection that makes winter travel easier and more comfortable.

Winter awaits – make your trip easier with a sled!
