The Black Diamond Explorer 3 Trekking Poles in Tundra are the go-anywhere trail companion for hikers who want reliable poles without the ultralight price tag. Three-section aluminum construction gives you a wide adjustment range (100–140cm) and collapses to a packable 61.5cm, so they strap to your pack when the terrain flattens out. FlickLock adjusters make on-the-fly length changes fast and secure.
With comfortable EVA foam grips and a design refined over years on the trail, the Explorer 3 is the smart pick for day hikes, backpacking trips, and everything in between.
Why we love it
The FlickLock adjustment system is genuinely easy to use — no more wrestling with twist-locks mid-climb. EVA foam grips absorb sweat and stay comfortable on long days. The three-section design means you can dial in the perfect length for uphill grinding or downhill bombing, then collapse them down when you hit a scramble.
