Fjällräven Travel Pack, Splitpack and Kajka: which bag suits your trip?

Short breaks, work trips and multi-day trekking all demand different types of luggage. This guide explains how Fjällräven’s luggage range handles those jobs, how the Travel Pack, Splitpack and Kajka differ, and which is most useful for city travel, active weekends and longer trips carrying heavier loads.

In simple terms, the Travel Pack is the neatest choice for organised short travel, the Splitpack is best when you want duffel-style packing with backpack carry, and the Kajka is built for trekking comfort over longer distances.

Travel Pack: city to cabin in one bag

The Travel Pack is a streamlined carry-on with the flexibility of a small rucksack. A two-handle grab system makes quick work of trains and overhead lockers, while stowable padded shoulder straps convert it into a backpack when you want hands-free. The main compartment opens clamshell-style for easy packing, with internal dividers to keep clothes separate from tech and a wash kit.

• Fast access: a zipped front section gives quick reach to documents and small items without opening the whole bag.
• Protected storage: padded sleeves and secure pockets help keep a laptop, chargers and travel essentials tidy.
• Travel-friendly build: clean lines, durable fabric and minimal dangling parts reduce snagging in tight spaces.

Best when you’re moving between meetings, stations and short walks—pack once, stay organised, and avoid rummaging at checkpoints. If you want to compare it against other smaller Fjällräven backpacks and travel bags, the Travel Pack sits at the more organised, city-friendly end of the range.

Splitpack: the organised duffel that carries like a rucksack

Think of the Splitpack as a duffel refined for order and comfort. It opens down the middle like a book into two equal compartments, each covered by mesh to keep the kit in place. Three internal mesh pockets sort smaller items; additional outer pockets handle quick-grab gear. A padded back panel and shoulder straps mean it carries securely when the route includes a longer walk.

• Balanced packing: divide clean and used kit, or work and weekend gear, without mixing.
• Hard-wearing fabric: G-1000 HeavyDuty Eco panels stand up to luggage carousels and boot floors.
• Versatile carry: backpack straps for distance, grab handles for short lifts.

Ideal for active short breaks where you need space for shoes, layers and extra kit, while still keeping everything easy to find. Within the wider Fjällräven bag range, it makes the most sense when you want more structure than a standard duffel but do not need a full trekking pack.

Kajka: trekking backpack for long distances and heavy loads

Kajka is built for multi-day trekking with a supportive, adjustable carry and a layout that makes remote travel simpler. A robust wooden frame underpins the suspension system, helping transfer weight to the hips. Front, side and lower access points take the rummage out of camp setup, while the wet and dry front pocket separates damp layers. Safety touches, such as an integrated whistle and reflective rain cover, add useful visibility.

• Supportive fit: a height-adjustable back system and padded hip belt distribute weight for steadier progress.
• Practical access: top load plus front zip panel, with side zips to reach buried items without unpacking.
• Trekking detail: compression straps, gear attachment points and a tough base for rough ground.

Choose Kajka when you’re carrying camping gear, food and water for days at a time and need dependable structure and comfort under load. For longer trips, the Fjällräven backpack collection makes it easier to compare Kajka against lighter or simpler carry systems.

Which pack suits which trip?

• Weekend city break, hand luggage only: Travel Pack for clamshell packing and easier access at gates.
• Active long weekend with mixed kit: Splitpack for the two-compartment layout and backpack carry.
• Multi-day trekking with shelter and stove: Kajka for load transfer, multiple access points and trail comfort.

Materials and weather notes

Travel Pack and Splitpack use tightly woven, durable fabrics that shed light showers and stand up to abrasion; selected panels use G-1000 HeavyDuty Eco for extra toughness. Kajka combines a weather-resistant shell with a strong frame and supportive harness. For persistent rain on G-1000 panels, you can add a light coat of Greenland Wax to increase beading; use the supplied rain cover on Kajka in wet spells.

Helpful accessories

• Packing organisers and pouches to segment cables, documents and smaller travel kit.
