Mountainsmith Andesite Neo Trekking Pole Pair

At just under 6 oz per pole, the Andesite NEOs are perfect for long distances, steep descents, and lightweight packability. Within just a few steps, they'll feel like an extension of your arm with their comfortable EVA handles and twist-lock adjustability; your knees will thank you later.

Co-designed with The Real Hiking Viking for long distance hikers that are looking for an all-day reliable pole that can go the distance; the Andesite NEOs are simple in design yet thoroughly thought out. Ultralight is the main focus of these sturdy poles at just under 6 oz per pole, with a full twist-lock, double cam adjustment and a durable EVA handle with soft-touch satin wrist strap. Newly redesigned for 2026 with 3-sections for ultra-compact portability, and, yes, you can likely check these bad boys in your luggage (check ahead with your airline for any limitations).
