- I recently saw an online advertisement for a brand new Eurohike Nepal 65 litre backpack being offered for just £28. So I thought to myself "this has got to be worth a try" !!
In this video I start by taking a brief look at the features of this backpack, then give it an initial test by packing it with my gear to see how it all fits. Hopefully this will be of some interest to those of you who are considering buying this pack.
As for the all the gear that I mention in this video, I have provided a full list in the description of an earlier "companion" video that discusses all the kit I carry for 3 season backpacking. Please see: • My 3 Season Backpack G...
Finally, please note that I am NOT affiliated with any brands. All the gear that I mention in this video (including the Eurohike backpack) I have purchased myself over the course of a number of years.
Cheers folks!

great video thanks
Thanks 👍. Glad you found it useful.
Excellent review - answered all the questions one might have when researching a particular backpack! Many thanks.
@@BitsMissing Thanks. Glad it was helpful 👍
Is this a framed backpack ?
Great video mate, interesting to see how this cheap pack is packed etc. subscribed 🤙🏽
Thanks 👍
Excellent video, very imformative
Thanks Christopher. Glad you enjoyed it! 👍
Great video. I'm just starting to acquire gear to go camping. I was thinking what size backpack I would need for my stuff and this video has answered my question. Cheers :)
Thanks. Glad it was helpful.
Yes, a 65 litre backpack is about the right size for multi day hikes and camps. And even for a single overnight camp. You don't have to fill it up if you don't need to. And with its empty weight being under 1.5 kgs, then it doesn't really matter if you're not using all the space on all your trips.
Enjoy!
Thanks for a great video review - does this have rear loading straps for a sleeping bag?
Thank you for your kind comment.
As for your question, I'm not sure exactly what you mean by rear loading straps for a sleeping bag? I usually put my sleeping bag within the lower zipped compartment of the backpack. I do not hang it on the outside.
Perhaps you are talking about the lower outside straps that can be pulled tight around the lower zipped compartment? These are actually quite long, and you could possibly hang something like a sleeping bag on the underside of the backpack outside and secure this down with the straps.
I did take a couple of photos to show what I mean, but it seems I can't directly attach these photos in my reply to you. So I've placed them in a shared public folder on Google Drive.
Here's the link: drive.google.com/drive/folders/1QcopvtRNh3A5Ak23FQk8A5Q2mw4b3T4T?usp=sharing
Not sure if this answers your question? Please let me know.
Kind regards.
Looks even more a bargain now as it's only £19 in go outdoors
Yup, sure does!!
Indeed, I just checked via Google. There's a bunch of retailers now offering it at £19. eg Ultimate Outdoors, Millets, Blacks.
Kinda makes you wonder why they are promoting this at such a generous low price? Do they know something we don't? :-)
Anyway. As I said in my video, gotta be worth a try! Especially now it's just £19.
Cheers!
Picked one up the other week from go outdoors for £20 absolutely love it
16 pounds if you have a student discount 😂I brought one last week
Excellent! Enjoy 👍
Is this good for just starting out in camping?
Absolutely. It'll be fine. If you can get it at £28 from Blacks, then compared with other brands it's a bargain. Whatever you do, if you're just starting out, don't spend a fortune on camping gear until you've been on a few trips to see whether you like camping in the first place! My own gear has been built up over many years, not all in one go. And if you find that camping is not for you then you can always sell your gear on eBay or wherever.
Enjoy!
