Moving fast and light on a hike means a great backpack that can handle your gear and doesn't hold you back. Right now, you can scoop up the top-rated Mammut Ducan 24 daypack for just $119.73 at REI. That's a healthy saving of 25% off this hiking backpack, which we called the ideal no-compromise pack in our field tests.

Advnture contributing writer James Dziezynski reviewed this pack all the way back in 2021 and was thoroughly impressed with its weight, stability on rough trails and comfortable fit.

"The Mammut Ducan 24 daypack wins high marks for its shoulder strap system. It uses an elastic, padded material that merges comfortably with the chest strap – something many other daypacks seem to incorporate as an afterthought," says James.

In addition to a moderate capacity in its main compartment, this pack has loads of useful details such as an integrated rain cover to protect your kit on wet days and a stretchy pocket on the shoulder strap that's actually big enough to hold your phone.

REI customers give this pack a perfect five stars. This pack comes in one size and this deal applies to all colorways.

A lightweight hiking backpack with practical features, the Mammut Ducan 24 pack features side pockets positioned to allow easy access and an air suspension system that ensures good ventilation.

Even if you're jogging, the pack stayed nicely cinched against your back and the venting system performs as advertised. A lack of outer pockets is a slight grumble and because it uses a thinner Polyamide/Polyester blend to save weight, the skin of the Ducan isn't quite as tough as thicker denier nylon packs, but the saved weight is worth it.
