Experience ultimate freedom in the backcountry with the Ortovox Switchback 27 backpack. Designed specifically for freeriders and ski tourers, this backpack combines clever functionality with maximum comfort.

The ORTOVOX Switchback 27 backpack is a lightweight, technically sophisticated ski touring backpack, ideal for long tours in remote alpine terrain. Designed for snow, ice and rock, it offers maximum functionality alongside minimal weight. It offers precisely the features that are essential for challenging ski tours.

Particularly practical is the quick access to essential equipment without having to remove the backpack. The shoulder pocket, side compartment for crampons, skins or snow crampons and rope attachment can all be accessed while carrying the rucksack. Skis can also be attached parallel to the backpack using a carabiner without taking the backpack off.

The main compartment and the integrated safety compartment, which has holders for a shovel and probe, can be accessed easily from the back. An additional, separate compartment in the upper section provides extra storage space for equipment. Two ice axe loops, daisy chains, a helmet net and a rope attachment point complete the versatile fastening options.

The ergonomic Full Contact Light Back System optimally distributes the load across the back for a high level of comfort. When the rucksack is not fully packed, the 3-point compression straps efficiently reduce its volume. All of these features make the Ortovox Switchback 27 backpack the ideal choice for anyone who values low weight, quick access and alpine functionality on long ski tours.
