Optimus

Optimus, a story of camping and bivouac

Founded in 1899 in Stockholm, Sweden, the Optimus brand has a long history of over 120 years in offering technical and reliable outdoor stoves and cookware. To maintain such a high level of quality over time, the Swedish brand, a member of the Katadyn group, has constantly set itself technical challenges. The result of this rich history is a complete range of equipment that has become commonplace in the outdoor and expedition community. Among these are camping and hiking stoves, various cooking systems, pots and cookware, as well as cutlery and small accessories. The liquid gas stove Optimus Crux Lite exemplifies the brand's expertise. This ultra-light stove weighs in at only 72 grams and is easily transportable thanks to its compact folded size, while also being highly efficient. It can accompany you on both a week of camping and a remote bivouac. The perfect bivouac gear for lightweight hiking!

Optimus gear for all expeditions

No matter your expedition, Optimus camping and bivouac gear is capable of equipping you. Whether you're heading out for a week of hiking in the Queyras, trekking in the Annapurnas, or cycling along the Napoleonic road, the camping cookware or cooking systems from the Swedish brand will meet your needs. For example, the cooking set Terra Solo 0.6L is perfect for hikers who travel light but well-equipped. Weighing only 200 grams, this set includes a pouring pot, a frying pan, and a sponge, all neatly packed in a mesh transport bag. And because the brand thinks of all situations, it offers Optimus gas canister stabilizers to ensure perfect support wherever you are set up. No need to leave your sleeping bag and search for a flat spot, as this tripod adapts to uneven terrain while its foldable design ensures easy storage.
