Osprey Ariel: Women's Trekking Backpacks
The Osprey Ariel series is specially designed for the female anatomy and is among the best trekking backpacks for women. The Anti-Gravity suspension system optimally distributes weight across hips and shoulders, while the shorter back length and tailored shoulder straps ensure a perfect fit.
Size Overview
- Ariel 55: For multi-day tours and hut hikes – compact enough for a week of trekking
- Ariel 65: For longer expeditions and trips with lots of gear – the classic for long-distance trails
