Mile 18. Sweat-soaked, sunglasses fogged, pot boiling. Reach for your Trail Rag.
The Trail Rag is a premium Merino wool trail towel designed to stay within reach when you need it most. Clip it to your backpack shoulder strap and use it to wipe sweat, clean sunglasses, dry cookware, handle hot pots, freshen up at camp, or tackle countless other trail-side tasks.
Built for hikers who demand reliability, durability, and true backcountry performance — this is our toughest and most refined trail towel yet.
Why Merino Wool?
✔ Naturally odor-resistant
✔ Antimicrobial
✔ Ultralight and packable
✔ Absorbs moisture without feeling clammy
✔ Dries quickly in the field
✔ Comfortable across a wide range of temperatures
Unlike synthetic camp towels that become stiff, abrasive, and prone to odors, the Trail Rag is made from 100% Australian Merino wool for long-lasting comfort and performance on every adventure.
Built for Real-World Use
After miles of testing across the Southern Appalachians and beyond, the Trail Rag has proven itself as a dependable companion for everything from day hikes to long-distance thru-hikes. Reinforced edging and smooth, rounded corners provide extra durability without adding unnecessary weight, while the integrated clip loop keeps your Trail Rag attached to your pack and always within reach.
Whether you're hiking the Appalachian Trail, exploring the Sierra High Route, overlanding remote backroads, traveling, or spending a weekend at camp — the Trail Rag is built to endure months, not just miles, of hard use.
Trail Rag vs. Synthetic Towels
Synthetic towels trap odors, stiffen over time, and can feel scratchy against skin. The Trail Rag's Merino wool stays soft, resists odor naturally, and performs trip after trip without breaking down — no special treatments required.
Designed by Hikers. Built for Wild Places.
Glacial Gear was founded by outdoor enthusiasts who wanted a better alternative to bulky, synthetic camp towels. Every Trail Rag is rooted in real-world trail experience and trusted by hikers since 2020.

Hey all! This trail rag is so great for wiping the sweat off your face while backpacking. Loved it while it lasted.
Unfortunately, I left my pack outside my tent at night (with the trail rag attached) and the wool was apparently very appealing for an animal to chew on - my trail rag was left in absolute tatters by some little beast on day 3 of my 12 day trip!
SO... let my experience be your example and DON'T leave your precious trail rag out at night. Keep it safely tucked away somewhere unless you want it to be destroyed (and be out $30)!
Love my trail rag and I appreciate their top notch customer service. Thank you Glacial Gear!
Great addition to my pack! Nice and soft incredible quality 👍
I love the size of this rag! I used to be a bandanna girl, but this doesn’t get in my way and it’s so soft. I bought two, a green and a purple one. One hangs on my pack and I wrap the other one around my fuel canister inside my titanium cookpot. Don’t hate me for this, but my only issue is they are little pricy.
Excellent quality and perfect to hang on shoulder strap for easy access.
