Hot walk? Cool plan.
Summer Nordic Walking is brilliant, but nobody wants to melt halfway up a hill.
Five ways to keep it comfortable:
• Walk early or late to stay cool and dodge the midday heat.
• Choose routes through shady woods, nature’s air con!
• Wear light, breathable layers, and don’t forget your hat.
• Keep water handy and sip often
• Sun cream every time, your skin will thank you.
A hydration bladder is a handy option, too. You can drink without stopping!
Keep cool. Keep moving. Save the hottest part of the day for an ice cream stop.

Your arms do a lot of work on a Nordic Walk, so the weight of your poles matters.
At only 139g each, the LEKI Speed Pacer Lite keeps every swing feeling light, smooth and responsive.
That can make a real difference when you are building pace, working on your technique or covering mile after mile.
The 85% carbon shaft keeps weight down, while the Nordic Shark system provides the secure connection needed for an effective push through the strap.

“Every summer walk has its own rewards: cool woodland shade, sparkling streams, and the gentle breeze that finds you just when you need it.”
Sometimes the best parts of a walk are the little moments along the way.
A cooler stretch beneath the trees. The sound of water nearby. A breeze that arrives right on cue. The sort of things you miss when you rush.
Grab your poles, pick a route, and see what your next summer walk has in store.
Where are you walking this summer?
Some poles feel like you're carrying them.
Others feel like they're part of your walk.
The LEKI Speed Pacer Lite falls firmly into the second category.
With an 85% carbon shaft and weighing just 139g per pole, it's designed for walkers who want a light, responsive feel without sacrificing performance. From the first pole plant, you notice how effortlessly it swings and how efficiently it transfers power through every stride.
The Nordic Shark grip and strap system keeps your connection to the pole secure and comfortable, helping you focus on your technique rather than your equipment. Quick to clip in, quick to release, and built for walkers who like to keep moving.
Whether you're training for an event, building fitness, or simply enjoy covering the miles, the Speed Pacer Lite is one of those poles that makes you look forward to your next walk.
