Packable extras for happy campers

Rab Neutrino 400

Super-lightweight and wind-resistant, this ultra-packable sleeping bag keeps you snug as a bug in a goosedown-filled rug – even when you’re bivvying on the side of a mountain. For use in cold conditions (down to -7°C), the stripped-back design does away with excess bulk so you can stash it in your pack for missions on the move.

Trinity Zero Coffee Press

Pack this compact coffee press in your day-pack for a strong slurp on the summit. No fiddling with filters required – there’s an inbuilt stainless steel one, so it’s simple to use. Place ground beans in the basket, add boiling water to the chamber and press the pump for a stellar brew. At just 6cm high and 9cm in diameter, it’s small enough for day hikes as well as longer camping trips.

Hydro Flask Food Jar

Want cold or hot fuel without the faff? This vacuum-insulated food jar will take up less space than a full-on flask, coming in sizes from 235 to 828ml, and the wide mouth is easy to eat bulky food from. The leak-proof stainless steel construction eliminates the fear of getting pasta sauce all over your clean layers when you’re scrambling, and the soft-grip lid is easy to open, even in the rain. from £32 / amazon.co.uk

Primus Lite Plus

Even intrepid adventurers need their beans – and the Primus Lite Plus is one of the best compact stoves on the market. Ideal for one person, it can stretch to two when you’re rehydrating a backpacking meal or making a cuppa. It’s designed to fit in a backpack and boils in around three minutes using a 100g gas canister… and it will add just 402g to your carrying load. from £108 / wildbounds.com
