For walkers, hikers, and campers, a reliable rucksack is essential. It needs to carry your key kit comfortably while standing up to regular use. At WM Camping, we stock a range of Vango rucksacks and backpacks designed for durability, with adjustable features to help you get the right fit.
Our collection includes everything from larger travel rucksacks for extended trips to smaller daypacks for shorter outings. We also stock dry bags - handy for keeping wet or muddy gear separate from the rest of your kit.

A well-fitted rucksack makes all the difference when carrying your gear. Whether you’re walking in the countryside, exploring rugged trails, or commuting, the right size and design will provide comfort and convenience. Key features to consider include:
The terms ‘rucksack’ and ‘backpack’ are often used interchangeably, but traditionally, rucksacks refer to larger packs designed for outdoor activities, while backpacks can include smaller everyday bags. A rucksack typically has additional support features such as waist straps and chest buckles to help distribute weight more evenly when carrying heavier loads.
The term ‘rucksack’ originates from the German word ‘Rücken’ (meaning ‘back’) and ‘Sack’ (meaning ‘bag’). Over time, it has become a common term in the UK for larger bags used in hiking, camping, and travel. Today, rucksacks are widely used beyond outdoor activities, including for school, work, and general travel.
