Tourist stools

Legs need to be taken care of! This everyone knows. That's why hiking stools are gaining such popularity. During a trip to the mountains, a walk in the woods, or even a boat cruise. When we arrive at the binnacle and make a campfire, it's fun to sit around roasting sausages. Walkstools are the perfect solution to the problem of what to sit on. They are lightweight and foldable which allows you to carry them easily. Plus, they can be stowed in your luggage. There is no problem to strap them to a backpack. Since poor, you can also carry them in your hand. Some models have a cover. We put the stools after folding into the cover and throw the straps over our shoulder. We can carry a lightweight hiking stool for long hours.

Folding hiking stools

Surely you have seen tourist stools in surface stores. When folded, they are still large and carrying them is not easy. Of course, if you are traveling in a camper and have a big trunk it makes no difference. However, if you are going on a hike or motorcycle trip it looks different. The locker needs to be stowed and we count every kilogram. The same if we are packing for a boat or bicycle trip. That's why it's important that the seat takes up little space. Walkstool stools fold compactly. That is, the legs slide into each other and the seat goes inside. Simple and fast and on top of that the fastened Velcro holds the structure in the folded position. Now all you have to do is put the stool in your backpack or carry case.

Walkstool stools and their height

To sit comfortably, we need to choose the height of the seat accordingly. Interestingly, whether we sit comfortably at a given height does not entirely depend on our height. The key role is played by the legs. It is their length that determines whether we will sit comfortably at 45 cm or at 65 cm. Walkstool stools are Scandinavian perfection. That's why we can choose from as many as 6 seat heights. Admittedly, the basic series with a comfortable seat offers only two heights, i.e. 50 and 60 cm, but the premium series offers as many as four. In addition to a larger seat and a cover to carry the stool, we have a choice of different seat heights. There are touring stools with heights of 45, 55, 65 and as high as 75 cm. This allows you to rest comfortably regardless of your stature. If we take care of our legs by buying quality trekking shoes, let's also buy a good trekking stool.

Not only hiking stools

Sometimes we don't have the opportunity to put up a stool or it's just better to sit on the ground or a stump. We don't have to do it directly because, first of all, it's a pity about the pants. Secondly, the surface on which we sit may be wet or not level. Then it's best to reach for solutions that have been proven on the hunt by hunters. Hunting seats because we are talking about them allow you to place them on almost any surface. They insulate well, do not get wet and at the same time increase the comfort of sitting. In addition, they take up even less space than tourist stools. They are easy to stow in a backpack, and can be clipped securely to a belt. Even kids can carry their seats and won't feel their weight.

Which seat should you choose?

To answer this question we need to know what the stool will be used for. It is known that for sitting but under what conditions? Will we carry it around a lot or take it out of the car for an outdoor concert. Wooden touring stools are heavier than aluminum ones. The lightest, in turn, are the seats. However, it's hard to sit on the seat when everyone around you is standing or sitting on stools. Walkstool stools can be easily and conveniently moved. The seats will clip on and throw anywhere. It is worth complementing the purchase of a stool with the purchase of a seat as well. Then, regardless of the place and circumstances, we are prepared to flap anywhere. We can rest and eat freeze-dried food and then enjoy the view of the landscape.
