Why Silva?

On a new trail or during a long ultra, you want to know where you are, what you're carrying and that you're clearly visible. That's exactly why we carry Silva at Trail.NL.

Silva is a Swedish brand that has been making compasses since 1933, which made it a household name among orienteers and mountaineers. Today Silva also makes headlamps, running vests and soft flasks for trail runners. The products are light, easy to use and built to last.

For us, Silva is above all a no-nonsense choice: practical gear without frills, from a brand that knows the forests and mountains.
