When your adventure doesn't terminate where the road ends, you require equipment that is able to keep pace. That's precisely what an increasing number of outdoor adventurers are finding with the growing popularity of the bikepacking packraft—an ultralight, packable watercraft that allows for effortless pedal-paddle fusion into one, border-pushing adventure.

The crew at Camping Hiking Adventures, a brand founded on harsh discovery and intelligent engineering, is spearheading this revolution with their newest packraft lineup specifically designed for bikepackers who won't be held back by terrain.

Two Wheels Meet Open Water

Bikepacking is already a challenge of endurance and creativity, striking a balance between travel gear, working around off-pavement routes, and exceeding limits on gravel, trail, and backcountry roads. But add a river or alpine lake to the equation, and it's a full stop for most configurations. A bikepacking packraft turns that on its head.

Intended to strap on quickly to a bike frame or be stowed in a drybag, these inflatable rafts provide cyclists with the capability to ford waterways that would be out of the way, to turn back, even. Rather than cycling around that river, you're now paddling across it.

And the reward isn't merely functional. It's transfigurative. As soon as your wheels become paddles and your trail turns to water, everything you can do in the outdoors becomes different.

Gear That Opens Up the Map

At a mere five pounds, the ultralight bikepacking packraft available at Camping Hiking Adventures is designed to handle the load of you and your loaded setup. With reinforced seams, tough fabrics, and intelligent attachment points for your bike frame, it's tough enough for real-world riding—yet small enough to roll up tight.

What sets this model apart is its rapid inflation design. With an included inflation bag, the raft transforms from rolled to ready in under five minutes. And once inflated, it paddles nicely on flatwater, slow-moving rivers, and backcountry lakes.

This is not a toy or a "just-in-case" product. It's an honest workhorse for multi-sport travel. It allows riders to access secluded campsites, link trails across wetlands, or just take in that special view from the center of the lake.

For the Rider Who Goes All In

This is all about getting deeper into more wild places, more silent places, and those corners of the world that only a hybrid adventurer will visit. On a long loop hike on the weekend or a chase up and down hills and across river bottoms all over a month, this gear changes everything.

And it's not only through-riders making headlines. Photographers, fly-fishers, off-grid campers, and minimalist explorers are all discovering new applications for the packraft. It's not one sport. It's about linking the dots between them.

Designed for the Backcountry. Prepared for the Road.

Camping Hiking Adventures tested their bikepacking packraft in the field for months before releasing it. The design is informed by input from real riders—those who've contended with gear on boulder-filled switchbacks, run rivers swollen with glacier melt, and stowed away soggy kit in less than ten minutes.

The outcome? A packraft that's rugged, user-friendly, and designed for the demands of existence beyond pavement.

Some notable features:

Welded seams for durability over time

Lash points and tie-downs for solid gear attachment

Compact profile that fits bike handlebars, racks, or panniers

Optional thigh straps and spray deck for added performance

Whether you’re just dipping into multi-sport adventures or already planning your next international traverse, this packraft bridges land and water like nothing else in its class.

What’s Next for Bikepackers?

The outdoor realm is constantly changing, but it's obvious bikepacking packrafts are not some fleeting trend. They're instruments for reimagining lines and accessing remote areas. They make fluidity of movement in the backcountry a reality, as much an art as it is a utility.

Camping Hiking Adventures is wagering heavily on this transition. Their base of riders, paddlers, and hybrid adventurers keeps increasing. And with each trip report, trail log, and riverside photograph posted, the argument becomes more convincing: the best way forward isn't necessarily on wheels—or water—but both.
