Katadyn Hiker Pro

The Katadyn Hiker Pro is a classic pump-style filter that has been a staple in the backpacking community for years. It uses a pleated glass fiber filter and an activated carbon core to remove bacteria, protozoa, and improve water taste. The pump action is reliable and easy to use, and the filter is field-cleanable. While pump filters have largely been replaced by squeeze and gravity systems due to their weight and complexity, the Hiker Pro remains a solid choice for those who prefer the tactile feedback and reliability of a pump.
