1. The Towel

Its original purpose, Lifeventure’s SoftFibre Trek Towels are available in a variety of sizes and make drying yourself while out and about a breeze. Soft and absorbent, the lightweight towels mean you’ll never be caught short and its antibacterial treatment provides increased hygiene and peace of mind.

2. The Beach Mat

When backpacking or travelling, every item in your bag has to prove its worth. Available in a range of sizes, Lifeventure’s Giant SoftFibre towels make the perfect beach mat. With a colourful design that looks completely at home at the sea’s edge, the towel’s quick-drying properties mean packing away is easy and the smooth fabric guarantees you won’t take half the beach home with you.

3. The Sarong

If you don’t fancy walking to the bar in just your swimming costume, Lifeventure’s SoftFibre Trek Towels’ colourful appearance and lightweight fabric means that they can also double up as an attractive beach cover-up.

4. The Tent Dryer

Packing down your campsite and faced with a wet tent? The SoftFibre Trek Towel’s ultra-absorbent fabric is perfect for soaking up any excess water from the flysheet’s surface.

5. The Camera Cleaner

Don’t let a dirty lens get in the way of that perfect shot, Lifeventure’s SoftFibre fabric has an ultra-smooth surface that is ideal for cleaning your camera’s lens without fears of it becoming scratched or damaged.

6. The Curtain

If you are bedding down in a hostel for the night, privacy might be lacking. With oversized, bath-sheet sized dimensions, Lifeventure’s range of Giant towels make a great makeshift curtain for getting changed or blocking out unwanted light.

7. The Blanket

Weather is unpredictable and if you are suddenly plunged into colder than expected temperatures, Lifeventure’s SoftFibre Trek Towels can be worn as a shawl or draped over your sleeping bag. The towel can be folded up and used as an improvised pillow too!

8. The De-Mister

The SoftFibre Trek Towels aren’t just great for summer adventures; the ultra-absorbent fabric is also perfect for de-misting goggles on winter-sport trips.
