Why Choose the Highlander Novar 50L+5L Rucksack?

If you need a high capacity expedition rucksack for multi day trekking, long distance hiking and challenging routes, the Highlander Novar 50L+5L Rucksack is built to carry heavier kit lists with comfort, stability and dependable durability.

As one of Highlander’s largest volume trekking packs, the Novar is ideal when you are carrying your world on your back. The expandable 50L+5L capacity gives you useful flexibility for longer trips, unpredictable conditions and routes that require extra food, spare clothing and equipment.

Comfort comes from the supportive Tri Active adjustable back system, designed to help create a stable carry and reduce fatigue over distance. With an adjustable back length range of 42cm to 52cm, you can tailor the fit to your torso for improved weight distribution. Adjustable shoulder straps and a supportive hip belt are complemented by dual webbing load stabilisation straps to keep the pack secure when loads are heavier.

Organisation and access are equally practical. The main compartment uses an easy access drawcord system, while the lid zipped pocket, zipped side pockets and two large stretch elastic front pockets help keep essentials sorted. Two hip fin pockets with waterproof zips keep smaller items protected and within easy reach. Attachment points for walking poles or an ice axe increase versatility for varied terrain, and hydration bladder compatibility supports hands free drinking on long days.

Made from durable 100% Nylon Ripstop with XTP Reinforce material and finished with reliable Duraflex buckles, the Novar is built for repeated expedition use. A raincover is included for added protection when conditions change.
