WALX Xplorer Total Body Walking Poles
- In stock
Compact. Lightweight. Built for Adventure.
The WALX® Xplorer poles are premium 3-section travel walking poles designed for people who want the freedom to walk anywhere — from walking holidays and hiking trails to Total Body Walking®, fitness walking, Nordic Walking, trekking, and everyday wellbeing.
Lightweight, portable, and incredibly versatile, the Xplorer folds down small enough to fit easily into suitcases, backpacks, and travel bags whilst still delivering the comfort, posture support, and walking performance WALX® is known for.
Whether you’re training for the Camino, exploring countryside trails, heading off on holiday, or simply wanting to walk further with greater confidence, the Xplorer is designed to move naturally with you.
The NEW WALX® Cork Ergo Grip™
At the heart of the Xplorer is the NEW WALX® Cork Ergo Grip™ handle — developed by the WALX Team to support more natural movement and all-day comfort.
Unlike traditional strapped poles, the ergonomic strap-free design mirrors the natural position of the hand and wrist whilst walking, helping reduce strain and allowing smoother arm swing and propulsion.
The handle is positioned:
- 15° vertically from the shaft
- 12° horizontally offset
This creates a more natural hand position whether you are walking for:
- fitness
- hiking
- rehabilitation
- wellbeing
- trail walking
- Total Body Walking®
No straps.
No clipping in and out.
No risk of remaining attached to the poles if you trip or stumble.
The design also makes it easier to use gloves, open gates, take photos, or simply free your hands when needed.
Perfect for Travel & Everyday Walking
The lightweight 3-part telescopic design collapses to less than 50cm, making the Xplorer ideal for:
- Walking holidays
- Hiking trips
- Travel adventures
- Weekend breaks
- Campervan & motorhome travel
- Everyday walking
Despite its compact size, the Xplorer remains strong, stable, and supportive for regular day-to-day use.
Each set includes:
- Lightweight travel bag
- Rubber paws for hard surfaces
- Baskets for softer ground and trails
