Trekking Pole Height Formula
The following formula is used to calculate the trekking pole height:
TPH = H × 0.68Variables:
- TPH is the trekking pole height (cm)
- H is your height (cm)
To calculate the trekking pole height, multiply your height by 0.68. This factor ensures that when holding the poles at a 90-degree angle, your elbows will also be at a 90-degree angle, which is ergonomically recommended.
