Keep moving.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eProper hydration on a long hike, trail run or cycling day is not just about carrying enough water — it is about being able to drink it without breaking your rhythm, taking off your pack or stopping to dig around for a bottle. That is what a hydration pack solves, and this 18L backpack with an included 3L PEVA bladder does it properly. Fill the bladder before you set off, route the 1m drinking tube through the pack and hydrate via the bite valve whenever you need water without slowing down or breaking stride — the kind of convenience that makes a genuine difference on a long ascent or a sustained trail run where stopping to drink costs time and momentum. The 18L main capacity gives you space for everything else you need alongside the hydration system — a spare layer, food, a first aid kit, a camera and the other gear that makes a full day outdoors comfortable without forcing you to choose between carrying water and carrying the rest of your kit. A breathable mesh back panel promotes airflow across the contact points between pack and back during active use to reduce heat build-up, and adjustable chest and waist straps keep the pack stable and close to the body during hiking, running and cycling without excess movement that creates chafing and fatigue. Multiple storage areas — main compartment, secondary pocket, side mesh pockets for bottles and a front elastic cord for lightweight layers — keep everything organised and accessible. Reflective strips on the front and shoulder areas improve visibility in low-light conditions for early morning starts and evening finishes. Rinse the bladder thoroughly before first use — for water only, not suitable for boiling water, juice, beer or milk. Available in Navy, Pink, Black and Grey.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Next Horizon gear","offers":[{"title":"Navy","offer_id":51737800900886,"sku":null,"price":44.95,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Pink","offer_id":51737800933654,"sku":null,"price":44.95,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Grey","offer_id":51737800966422,"sku":null,"price":44.95,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Black","offer_id":51737800999190,"sku":null,"price":44.95,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0997\/3563\/4198\/files\/Hydrationbag.png?v=1787223818","url":"https:\/\/nexthorizongear.com\/products\/18l-hydration-backpack-3l-water-bladder","provider":"Next Horizon Gear","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
