Hello good people. Today on the blog we look at this trekking pole. I recently bought the tattenino when I did the search was on a slight trekking stick to support the curtain. I managed to find what seemed to reach the correct balance between weight and price. So, let’s sink and see how this trekking pillar behaved!
Overview and specifications
The weight may not seem like an important factor in choosing a trekking pole, since most modern pillars tend to reach less than 500 grams. However, if you want to go with reality, it is important to try to laugh at every possible gram of the package. I noticed a great increase in prices for most sticks that weigh less than 200 grams, so if you want to stay wild, you will probably look for something in the 200 – 250 grams
Lightweight Design for Backpacking Adventures
One of the main reasons hikers pay close attention to trekking pole weight is because every gram matters during long-distance hikes. While many modern trekking poles weigh under 500 grams, backpackers who follow a lightweight or ultralight philosophy often aim for models between 200 and 250 grams. This weight range provides an excellent compromise between durability, comfort, and affordability without dramatically increasing the overall load carried throughout the day.
Lightweight trekking poles can significantly reduce fatigue, especially on multi-day hikes where every piece of equipment contributes to the total pack weight. They also improve balance on uneven terrain, making it easier to cross rocky trails, muddy paths, river crossings, and steep inclines. Besides providing stability while walking, many hikers use their trekking poles as structural supports for ultralight shelters and tarp tents, eliminating the need to carry dedicated tent poles and saving even more weight.
When selecting a trekking pole, the material plays an important role in its overall performance. Aluminum poles are generally more resistant to impacts and accidental bending, making them a reliable option for beginners and hikers who frequently travel over rough terrain. Carbon fiber models, on the other hand, are noticeably lighter and absorb trail vibrations more effectively, although they can be more expensive and slightly less resistant to sudden impacts against rocks.
Another factor worth considering is the adjustment mechanism. Telescopic poles allow users to modify the length depending on the terrain, shortening them during uphill climbs and extending them when descending. This flexibility also makes them compatible with many trekking tents that require a specific pole height for proper setup. Reliable locking systems are essential to prevent unwanted movement while supporting body weight or holding up a shelter.
Comfort should not be overlooked either. Ergonomic handles made from cork, EVA foam, or rubber offer different advantages depending on the climate and personal preference. Cork grips naturally adapt to the shape of your hand and absorb moisture during hot weather, while foam handles remain comfortable in colder temperatures and are appreciated during extended hikes. Adjustable wrist straps also help distribute pressure more evenly, reducing hand fatigue over long distances.
Overall, choosing a lightweight trekking pole is about finding the right balance between weight, durability, comfort, and price. Whether you’re tackling mountain trails, embarking on multi-day backpacking trips, or simply looking for reliable support for your camping shelter, investing in a well-designed trekking pole can make your outdoor adventures safer, more comfortable, and considerably more enjoyable.
Size and weight
This trekking stick is folding and has 4 sections – 5 if the lid is counted at the end of the barrel. When bent, it has a length of 36 cm and when the stick is completely extensive it has a length of 135 cm.
Cement had a declared weight of 234 grams. When I made our weighing, I discovered that it reached only a shadow of over 237 grams (without a bag). As I said on this blog, it is always better to assume that what you buy could weigh a little more (or not, if you are lucky) than it is not declared.
Material
Pâlna is made of carbon fiber and aluminum alloy 7075. The tip of the barrel is made of tungsten steel. Both the lid in the end that the handle are made of rubber EPA, as far as I can say. The page with the specifications listed seems to be a little vague on this part!
Review of the cheap light trekking pole
So, let’s take a look at how this stick has actually behaved on a recent trip.

The part of the extension and withdrawal
For some reason, it took me about 5 attempts to expand the stick when I received it for the first time. There is certainly a talent and the lack of real instructions has not helped! But once you know how, it is easy to expand and collapse in a few seconds. I found the storage bag that is supplied with the pole enough at hand when not used.
Starts from camping and walking
In the interest of complete dissemination, I should say that in reality I did not make a lot of walking with this pole when I removed it. However, I will write a revision in depth of this aspect of the pole when I have the opportunity. For about 30 minutes I have used to walk so far, it certainly seems quite comfortable and robust. The handle does not seem too «plastic». I also discovered that the wrist strap does not confuse me, which is a personal problem with trekking sticks!
When it was time to support myself with the stick, I discovered that it is fast and easy to enter. I was worried that carbon fiber could prove to be a little fragile to support a curtain, but it didn’t crash my tent at midnight!

Conclusion
In conclusion, even though my initial experience with the trekking pole was limited, the first impressions are promising and suggest that it is a comfortable, robust, and reliable tool. During the brief 30 minutes of walking I tested, the pole proved to be easy to handle and provided stable support, giving confidence in its construction and design. The handle feels solid and durable, avoiding the overly “plastic” feel that can detract from the user experience, while the wrist strap works seamlessly without causing confusion or discomfort—a feature that can be problematic for some users.
The pole’s performance as a support tool also exceeded expectations. Despite concerns about the carbon fiber material being potentially fragile, it handled supporting the tent without any issues, even during the night. This demonstrates that the design balances lightweight portability with the strength required for practical outdoor use, making it a versatile choice for hikers and campers. Its quick deployment and ease of use further enhance its appeal, ensuring that it can be relied upon in a variety of scenarios, whether for walking support or emergency stabilization.
While a more in-depth review will follow after extended use, these preliminary observations indicate that the trekking pole meets key criteria for functionality, comfort, and durability. For anyone seeking a reliable outdoor companion, it shows potential as a practical and sturdy option. Early experiences like these help build trust in the gear and provide a solid foundation for more comprehensive evaluation in the future.
