I visited the World's Largest Outdoor Retailer! Decathlon invited me to visit their Mountain Headquarters in the Alps in France. I have been a fan of Decathlon's outdoor gear for many years and I truly believe their camping gear products are exceptional value.

Backpacking gear is designed, developed, manufactured and tested at their Mountain Store in France close to Europe's highest mountain, Mont Blanc.

All their hiking gear is tested extensively locally in the challenging parts of Europe to ensure it's fit for purpose and a quality product.

Decathlon has the familiar camping brand Quechua and trekking brand Forclaz. My favourite gear is the Forclaz MT-900 range.
