What to know before buying
Listing details to confirm
The listing names the model Alp Trainer 35+3 but gives its storage volume as 38 Liters and its expandable feature as Erweiterbar. Treat the stated volume as the listed figure rather than assuming how the model name translates into usable capacity. The listing also calls the pack Waterproof without providing conditions or a rating, so the level of protection is unconfirmed.

Aggregate ratings are mostly in the higher star categories, but a notable share are in the lower categories too. This small rating sample gives a mixed overall signal, and without written feedback it cannot show what buyers liked or disliked. For a hiking pack, consider the listed 1,450-gram weight and 38-litre capacity against your own carrying needs.
