Ultralight packraft

Also: UL packraft, ultralight

Ultralight packrafts weigh about one kilo or less and are designed for calm water and long hikes.

Weight is saved on tube diameter, fabric weight, seat and equipment. That has limits: ultralight boats are less stiff, have less freeboard and, according to the manufacturer, are usually not built for whitewater. Examples are the Anfibio Nano SL and Nano RTC.

We've been using the Nanos on hikes since 2020, for example in Rago National Park at 830 grams per boat. More on our site Ultraleicht-Packraft.de.
