As avid walkers and day-hikers we were interested in the many hiking and walking staffs on the market, but none seemed to suit our needs.

We wanted sturdy, rugged, and dependable staffs — a hiking staff that could sustain our weight and keep us safe on slippery or dangerous terrain, and a walking staff that would add stability, balance, and leverage on less strenuous ambles, but we also wanted staffs that could be tucked away when the trail turned gentle and easy – who needs to lug around trekking poles when they aren't needed?
We pondered the many options on the market. Did we want trekking poles with telescoping lengths? We wondered if we would really want to keep making adjustments as we walked along. Weight? The lighter the better. Tip? Hiking in the Rockies, we need hiking staffs that can bite into rock and icy patches. And then there was portability; we really wanted something that would fold and tuck easily into our packs for those easy sections of our hike, or fit effortlessly into suitcases when we travel.
And then we found the Volkstaf® Heavy-Duty Folding Walking Staff and Travlr® Ultra-Compact Folding Walking Staff … the perfect trekking poles for our hiking and walking needs!

And both staffs have a comfortable, soft foam grip, long enough to hold higher or lower — a quick and easy way to handle different terrain angles without adjusting telescoping poles.
The Volkstaf® Hiking Staff and Travlr® Walking Staff are the only folding walking poles to use the swage and flare joint, creating in the Volkstaf® model a “positive lock” — fusing the individual pieces of the hiking staff into one wobble-free, rigid trekking pole that will never collapse. And on Travlr® models, the swage and flare joint produces a sturdiness and dependability unimaginable in such a small lightweight folding walking stick. This difficult piece of craftsmanship, not offered in other “knock-off” foldable walking staffs, highlights the commitment of the manufacturer to produce only the very highest-quality walking sticks, each one made by hand by highly skilled artisans in the USA.
Reliability — both Volkstaf® Hiking Staffs and Travlr® Walking Staffs spring open instantly when you need them, and tuck away when you don't. And these highest-quality trekking poles are backed by the manufacturer's Warranty of Quality, which keeps these staffs reliable for as long as you want to use them!
Today we meet all our hiking and walking needs with either the Volkstaf® Hiking Staff or Travlr® Walking Staff… depending on terrain and conditions we'll choose to use either the Volkstaf® or Travlr®, and on more difficult hikes we often use a pair of staffs for greater dependability and bodily ease. We now offer them to you so you can experience your next hike or walk with the best hiking, walking, trekking staffs on the market!
