Pole Length Advisor

Whether it’s Alpine Skiing, Cross-Country Skiing, Trail Running, Hiking/Trekking, or Nordic Walking, choosing an appropriate pole length helps you get the most out of your poles. The right length can support proper technique, stability, and efficient power transfer. Recommended pole length varies depending on the activity, which is why LEKI offers a pole length aid to help determine a suitable starting point based on your height and chosen sport. For adjustable hiking/trekking and backcountry ski poles, simply make sure the recommended length falls within the adjustment range of the model you are considering. Please keep in mind that the suggested pole length is a general recommendation, not a guarantee of perfect fit. Individual body proportions, technique, terrain, footwear, and personal preference can all influence which pole length feels most comfortable and works best for you.
