Super comfortable, easy to access its interior and lightness. I really like the cooling system on the back, and the only drawback is that it does not have zipper pockets in the lumbar area of the belt.

Excellent backpack, for excursions of 1 to 2 days, even 3 if desired. The Salewa system is exceptional so as not to sweat your back, a practical and light backpack.

Extra backpack for 5 days and overnight stay in a shelter

Pio

The perfect backpack for a 5-day autumn training trip to the Śladki Beskids, with overnight stays in mountain huts. It's incredibly comfortable, with one pocket with easy access. The carrying system, hmm... the world hasn't invented one yet that keeps you sweat-free. I recommend it to everyone. Previously, I used to go with a Rook 50.

I love the materials. You can tell it's Salewa. Very practical with the front opening. Ideal size. To make a mistake, few options to hook things on the outside, but it is part of the design to make it very compact.

The Salewa Alp Mate 36l is designed for medium alpine tours, offering a specific set of features tailored for comfort and reliability on the trail. Let's see how it stacks up against other popular daypacks and hiking packs in a similar category.

Where it excels

The Salewa Alp Mate 36l stands out with its 36-liter capacity, which is significantly larger than the other packs in this comparison, making it well-suited for longer day hikes or medium alpine tours requiring more gear. It features the brand's Dry Back Air system, which uses a suspended back panel designed to enhance ventilation and reduce body contact, a specific comfort feature not detailed for the other packs. This pack includes an integrated rain cover and is compatible with hydration systems, providing all-weather readiness and convenience for long treks.

Consider alternatives if...

Verdict

The Salewa Alp Mate 36l is a strong contender for hikers who need generous capacity for all-day or medium-length tours. Its specialized Dry Back Air ventilation system, dual-access main compartment, and included rain cover make it a feature-rich option. While it offers more space than the other packs listed, those seeking a smaller, more streamlined pack for shorter excursions might find the lower-capacity alternatives from Deuter, Gregory, or Vaude to be a better fit.
