Frequently Asked Questions
Is a 65L rucksack suitable for a multi-day hike?
Yes. A 65L rucksack provides useful capacity for multi-day hiking, camping and outdoor expeditions while offering a more manageable size than a larger 80L pack. The Caribee Pulse 65L is suited to carrying camping equipment, clothing, food and personal gear on multi-day adventures.
Is the Pulse 65L suitable for Duke of Ed (Duke of Edinburgh) expeditions?
The Pulse 65L can be a practical choice for Duke of Ed expeditions where the participant's required equipment and local Duke of Ed Centre requirements suit a 60–70L rucksack.

Always check your school's or Duke of Ed Centre's equipment list before choosing your pack.

Its 65L capacity provides a practical balance between storage and pack size, while the adjustable Vantage harness and supportive carrying system help provide a comfortable fit.
Is 65L enough for a hiking and camping backpack?
For many multi-day hiking and camping trips, 65L provides useful capacity for a sleeping bag, shelter, clothing, food, cooking equipment, water and personal essentials. The amount of space required depends on the length of the trip, the equipment you need to carry and how compact your camping gear is.
How do I adjust the Pulse 65L hiking rucksack for a comfortable fit?
Start by adjusting the Vantage harness to suit your torso length, then adjust the hip belt, shoulder straps and sternum strap while wearing the type of load you expect to carry. The aim is to create a stable, comfortable fit that distributes the load effectively for longer days on the trail.
What should I pack in a 65L hiking rucksack?
A 65L hiking rucksack can accommodate camping equipment such as a sleeping bag, shelter, sleeping mat, clothing, food, cooking equipment, water and personal essentials. For school camps, Duke of Ed, cadet or other organised expeditions, follow the equipment list provided by your school or organisation and avoid carrying unnecessary items simply because you have additional space.
