Nordic walking combines the benefits of a full-body workout with the simplicity of walking. Purpose-built poles engage your upper body muscles while reducing strain on joints, making this a practical choice for fitness, rehabilitation, or simply enjoying the British countryside.
How to Choose Your Nordic Walking Poles
Material matters. Carbon poles absorb vibrations to protect your shoulders and elbows during longer sessions. Aluminium poles offer greater durability for rougher terrain. Many walkers prefer a carbon-aluminium blend for the best of both.
The glove system. Unlike standard trekking poles, Nordic walking poles feature a release mechanism that lets you open your hand at the end of each push. Look for detachable glove straps that allow natural hand movement throughout the Nordic walking technique.
Fixed or adjustable length. Fixed-length poles are lighter and more responsive. Adjustable or folding poles suit travellers or those sharing equipment. Calculate your ideal length by multiplying your height in centimetres by 0.68.
Interchangeable tips. Rubber paw tips work well on pavements and tarmac. Carbide or tungsten tips grip softer surfaces like grass, trails, and woodland paths. Most quality poles include both options.
