Leki Makalu Lite poles

The little sister of the classic Makalu is a slightly lighter yet reliable companion for your next mountain adventure!

The Makalu Lite is equipped with the new Aergon Air, which has been redesigned for comfort and control and improved in countless details. The special hollow core technology combines lightweight construction with large, supportive surfaces that meet all the ergonomic requirements of your hand.
