The ARIEL 65 women's backpack by Osprey is available from Speck-Sports.

This rucksack, specially designed for women, will accompany you everywhere on your long hikes thanks to the carrying comfort it offers.

With a fully adjustable waist belt and Fit-on-the-Fly shoulder straps, it's easy to adapt the Ariel 55 to your body shape. What's more, the back length is adjustable and the Airscape back panel with EVA foam padding helps to dissipate moisture while offering greater comfort.

The Ariel 's 55 litres are easily accessible thanks to a bottom opening, a top opening and a U-shaped opening on the front of the bag. When using the removable base to compartmentalise the rucksack, the bottom opening gives access to the lower compartment for the sleeping bag.

There's no shortage of storage space in the Ariel 55, with two zipped pockets on the top flap, a front tote pocket, two zipped pockets on the hip belt, elastic loops for poles or ice axes and side mesh pockets with double access for easy water bottle storage.

Finally, Osprey hasn't neglected the practical and functional aspects of its Ariel 55 , as it's already sold with a rain cover. You can also insert a water pocket or attach a Daylite rucksack to the front of the bag. Compression straps optimise volume.

The Ariel 55 backpack by Osprey is designed for women looking for a versatile model that's also perfectly suited to their body shape for long treks in the mountains.
