Hiking Backpack Bergans Helium V5 W 55 Husky Blue/Black 55L

The Helium V5 W 55 women's hiking backpack stands out with unique, newly developed materials and the ability to convert from a large to a small backpack by detaching the lid, which can be paired with the hip belt, giving you extra flexibility when you only need the essentials. Preferred by both extreme expedition enthusiasts and trekking and light outdoor walk fans, the Helium V5 55 hiking backpack offers a convenient 40-liter volume for multi-day hikes, incredible lightness (just 912 grams), strength, flexibility, and durability.

For the 20th anniversary of one of the best-selling and most popular hiking backpack series, Helium, Norwegian manufacturer Bergans of Norway impresses us with a new version of this unique family of ultralight multifunctional backpacks.

The Helium V5 W 55 is the latest hiking backpack from the super lightweight series by Norwegian brand Bergans Helium, which has won numerous awards. Backpacks from this collection are incredibly popular and have traveled to every corner of the world (including the North and South Poles), with their advantages over other hiking backpacks earning them a following among enthusiasts of various mountain sports—from light walks to ski touring, mountaineering, serious multi-day treks, and intense extreme expeditions.

With the Helium V5 55, the Norwegians from Bergans offer us their specially developed fabric, combining high-quality Nylon 66 and Black Dyneema ripstop, providing incredible strength and durability without compromising on low weight—a hallmark of the series. Nylon 66 is a polyamide known for its high stiffness and resistance to abrasive impacts, retaining its properties even under significant temperature fluctuations. Black Dyneema ripstop is a high-grade, patented laminated fabric made from special Dyneema fibers, which is incredibly strong while being lightweight—sheets of it are 15 times stronger than steel, yet do not add extra weight to products that use it. This makes Dyneema an ideal choice for creating ultralight camping and trekking equipment like backpacks, raincoats, tents, dry bags, etc. The combination of these two types of fabrics makes the Helium V5 55 extremely reliable over the years, regardless of how often you use it and under what conditions.

For maximum comfort, the Helium V5 W 55 women's hiking backpack features the Bergans QuickAdjust PRO system for adjusting the distance between the shoulder straps and the hip belt, allowing you to fine-tune it to your individual needs. The back, shoulder straps, and belt are cushioned with double foam, while their mesh material ensures effective ventilation.

The Helium V5 55 backpack features another innovation—it is designed so that it can be transformed into a smaller version. If you really want to go ultralight, you can detach the hip belt and the lid of the backpack and combine them into a hip pack, allowing you to dash to the next peak with just a windbreaker and a water bottle, and see the mountain from more angles without being weighed down by heavy luggage and your entire bivouac assortment. Another advantage of this model over previous models in the Helium series is the diagonal zipper that runs across the entire backpack, which provides quick access to the entire interior for easier organization. The top opening is secured with an elastic cord. There are compression straps on both sides that allow you to compact the backpack when carrying less luggage. The lid has a large external pocket, and on both sides, the backpack has elastic, mesh pockets for water bottles. The hip belt allows for a wide range of adjustments, with its length varying between 81 and 130 cm, and if you're carrying less luggage, you can detach it to reduce the backpack's weight by 165 grams. For maximum comfort and reduced risk of chafing, the belt is cushioned with double dense foam featuring the Iliac Press Relief system. For greater stability, there are straps that can tighten the backpack closer to the body. The lid also detaches (saving an additional 55 grams of weight) and can be combined with the belt to take advantage of a small hip pack. The compartment in the lid includes a handy hook for keys.

The women's hiking backpack Helium V5 W 55 is compatible with a hydration system. It features Bergans PLUS modular attachment points for gear such as skis, poles, and ice axes. The model also includes attachment points for the Bergans Plus Drypack pocket backpack and a set of hip belt pockets. All zippers are high-quality Japanese YKK. The materials used in the construction of the Helium V5 55 have a bluesign certificate for environmentally friendly use and leave a minimal footprint on the environment.

The completely revamped women's hiking backpack Helium V5 W 55 from Bergans offers a range of extras, super low weight, maximum resistance to wear, and comfort for carrying any additional equipment—all of which makes it a complete model, suitable for both summer and winter trekking and mountaineering.
