Water Filter Bottles

Why choose a filter water bottle?

A filter water bottle comes with a built-in filter: fill up at a river, spring or lake, and drink safe water with every sip. No more lugging around a heavy water supply—you can safely top up straight from nature. It's the ideal companion for self-sufficient treks and trips where water quality can't be guaranteed.

What does it filter out?

Most filters trap bacteria, protozoa and impurities (sediment, particles). Bear in mind that not all filters stop viruses, which are more common in certain regions or heavily contaminated water; for that level of protection, a more advanced water purifier is needed. Check the filtration fineness and the filter's lifespan (in litres treated).

Flexibility, shape and flow rate

Some models are soft and collapsible, while others are rigid like a standard bottle. Flow rate and ease of drawing water through matter day to day on the trail. A filter water bottle slips easily into your rucksack and takes the place of much of your water supply. Compare with classic walking water bottles depending on your routes.

Looking after your filter

A filter needs a bit of care: rinse it after use, backflush it regularly to keep the flow rate strong, and protect it from frost, which can damage it. Well looked after, it'll treat thousands of litres. You'll find it in our range of walking accessories. A simple, quick and lightweight system for clear, drinkable water—that's what makes a filter water bottle so handy to use mile after mile on the trail.
