Welcome to Ultra Light Hike

Affiliate Disclosure

Last updated: 26 December 2025

UltralightHike.com is operated by Ultralighthike (trading as UltralightHike.com) (“we”, “us”, “our”).

To help fund this website and keep content free to read, some pages contain affiliate links.

What are affiliate links?

Affiliate links are special tracking links. If you click an affiliate link and then make a purchase, we may earn a small commission from the retailer — at no extra cost to you.

This commission helps pay for:

  • website hosting and tools
  • photography and content creation
  • ongoing updates to guides and gear reviews

Amazon Associates (UK)

UltralightHike.com participates in the Amazon EU Associates Programme (Amazon.co.uk). As an Amazon Associate, we earn from qualifying purchases.

Product prices and availability are accurate as of the date/time indicated on the retailer’s site and are subject to change.

Other affiliate partners (if applicable)

From time to time, we may also use affiliate links from other UK retailers or affiliate networks.

If we do, we will only recommend products and services we believe are relevant to UK hikers and backpackers. Where required, sponsored content or paid partnerships will be clearly labelled.

Editorial independence

Affiliate commissions do not influence our editorial content. We aim to:

  • research products carefully
  • highlight pros and cons honestly
  • recommend the best option for the intended use-case and budget

However, all gear and outdoor activity involves risk, and you should always check that equipment is suitable for your conditions and ability.

Your responsibility

Any purchase you make is between you and the retailer, and is subject to the retailer’s:

  • terms and conditions
  • delivery/returns policies
  • warranties and customer service

We do not sell products directly through this website.
