Salewa Alpine-Tec 50 cm Travel Ice Axe - Night/Black

A lightweight hybrid ice axe with an aggressive blade and minimalist handle, ideal for both easier and more challenging mountain trails in steep, technical terrain.

It is equipped with a shaft made of durable 7075 aluminum, which is highly resistant. Thanks to its slight curve, it is also suitable for ice climbing. The head is made of carbon steel and equipped with a 3-millimeter blade on one side and a hammer on the other.

The model features a shorter design (50 cm) and a slightly higher camber compared to the classic Alpine-X with a straight shaft. The ergonomically contoured head ensures the fit of the ice axe to the hand, which increases comfort when using it as a support during approaches and descents. At the bottom of the shaft is a sharp, replaceable carbide tip that provides better grip when moving through hard snow or ice.
