Welcome to the Outdoor 100 for 2024. This is our guide to the latest and greatest outdoor gear and the result of a rigorous selection and testing process by our team of reviewers here at Outdoors Magic. We’ve been putting countless products to the test in a range of different environments; from the windblown cliffs of the Pembrokeshire coast to the fells of the Lake District, the Highlands of Scotland and even up to the remote alpine slopes of the Accursed Mountains in Albania. Here are the 100 standout items.

All the equipment and tools for a hike and camp set-up; from hydration options through to tents and stoves
