A medium-sized backpack, carefully made. This is another Alpinus backpack that I own, and so far each one has met my expectations. It works great during mountain trips: it's spacious (has many practical pockets), comfortable, and looks modern. I definitely recommend it.

Tarfala is a well-designed and thoroughly thought-out backpack. Although it has a declared capacity of 35 liters, it seems less spacious than my Alpinus Lecco 30, which is due to the presence of a frame in the carrying system – by the way, a very comfortable one. Nevertheless, the backpack holds quite a lot. The fabric resembles Cordura, and the green color looks excellent. Lying next to the military Wisport, it looks like it could match, but it stands out with much greater comfort and ergonomic solutions compared to popular military 'boxes'. After years of using heavy, military models, I have no desire to return to them – Alpinus is much more comfortable, which is crucial for everyday use. The solid mesh ventilation and the frame on the back create a great solution for summer days. I definitely recommend it.

The backpack is very spacious, well organized, and comfortable – 35 liters is plenty of space for stuff, clothes, and food. It fits on the back very well, and the green color blends into the surroundings nicely. It's lightweight, yet durable – perfect for the mountains, weekend trips or everyday use.

I bought this backpack for my father for a mountain trip, because the previous one was too small and uncomfortable. My dad is very satisfied – he points out that the stowable rain cover and well-placed pockets, along with the practical carrying system, work perfectly.

Wearing this backpack is very comfortable; thanks to the frame, your back doesn't get sweaty. Unfortunately, the way the interior is designed makes it difficult to conveniently put things in and take them out. In my opinion, the actual capacity is about 20 liters. I kept it solely because of the comfort, since the inside is very cramped.

The backpack is fine and costs little when on sale. Compared to the Hi Tech Aruba 35l, this model is more attractively priced and larger. Only the front compartment seems unnecessary – water got in there during rain, but that's a matter of personal preference.

Overall, it's fine, although the shaped frame is a downside since it reduces the space in the main compartment. Despite this, I bought it on sale and the price was appropriate.

Pretty nice backpack, the frame does its job, just like with Deuter, but for a much lower price. The material could be thicker, but at this price you shouldn't expect miracles. It's very good for quick trips.

I tested the backpack during one-day mountain hikes. It is very comfortable – it doesn't pinch or cause chafing. The stitching is solid. Even when fully packed, nothing was damaged. The large side pockets, two compartments, and small pockets on the hip belt and inside make organizing luggage easy. The mesh panel greatly improves air circulation, making the journey more pleasant. Although the manufacturer didn't plan for an H2O system, I managed to mount a hydration bladder without any problem; I routed the tube and mouthpiece in my own way, and it works very well – the water doesn't warm up from body heat. However, you should be aware that the frame affects the way you pack and slightly reduces capacity. Nevertheless, the backpack is well-made, very comfortable, and fits great on the back.

In theory, everything is fine, but this frame makes the backpack quite annoyingly stiff. Despite the declared 35 liters, it seems less capacious, probably because of this very frame.

I highly recommend this backpack for both short and long trips. The biggest advantage is the frame construction, which provides good back ventilation even during long walks. The hip belt also works well – it has small pockets, ideal for small items like keys. The strap adjustments are very convenient; you can easily fit them to the user's height.

This is a very pleasant medium-sized backpack for trips. It has the right capacity and isn’t too big. The build quality is flawless. It's worth trying.

The Alpinus Tarfala 35L backpack in blue is an excellent choice not only for mountain hiking trails but also for shorter one- or two-day trips outside the city. The backpack is comfortable, carefully made, and well designed inside. I wholeheartedly recommend it.

This backpack has a poor design – the frame limits its capacity, and if you pack the main compartment, the additional pockets become almost useless. The trekking pole attachment system didn't work for me at all; it's uncomfortable and impractical. I wouldn't buy it again.

I placed the order at 10:54 PM, and the backpack was ready for pickup the next afternoon – that was a big surprise for me. The backpack itself is very functional, spacious, and has an interesting compression system for when it is not fully packed.
