Walking Poles with rubber tips for the Inca Trail
We recently had a question from a customer who is going on the Inca Trail. Apparently it is recommended that if you use walking poles on the Inca Trail, you use a rubber foot on them rather than the tungsten or carbide tip usually used. I believe this is to protect the rock underfoot from unneccessary erosion with the constant stream of trekkers on the trail.
Many walking poles have a rubber protector on the tip, to save you spearing other walkers and yourself. These tips are not meant for walking. The rubber feet we supply with all our Highlander Walking Poles are the right thing for the job. They are proper rubber covers intended for walking with. So if you are looking for walking poles with a rubber end, look no further. Posted by bigcrags @
