The Rab Ascendor 45L Mountain Pack is a lightweight, durable, and highly versatile alpine backpack built for all-season adventures. Light enough for summer cragging, but large enough for winter routes in the Highlands. Key features include zip side entry to avoid a frozen rope or crampons strapped under the lid etc. Designed for climbers and mountaineers, it offers multiple carry options for ropes, skis, and ice tools, along with a comfortable, stable TRI-FLEX™ back system. From alpine routes to crag days, the Ascendor 45L is the ultimate all-mountain pack for any ascent.

The Rab Ascendor 45L Mountain Pack has been built for climbers and mountaineers who want one pack that can do it all. Lightweight, durable, and impressively versatile, it adapts easily to your needs with removable components and a clever, modular design. Whether you’re tackling alpine ascents, technical climbs, or long approaches, the Ascendor delivers reliable comfort, efficient load carrying, and outstanding durability in all conditions. Designed to carry ropes, skis, and ice tools with ease, this all-mountain rucksack performs just as well for summer alpinism and scrambling as it does for Scottish winter climbing or a big day at your local crag. Made from 210D Robic Ripstop Nylon with Trishield Dura Coating, it offers excellent tear and abrasion resistance with reliable water repellency, so you can leave the liner behind and still keep your gear dry. The TRI-FLEX™ back system ensures a secure, balanced fit that moves with you, while integrated RECCO® technology adds an extra level of safety in remote alpine terrain. From mixed winter routes to long summer days on rock, the Rab Ascendor 45L is the one pack you’ll take everywhere.
