Petzl Headlamps


Over 50 years ago, Petzl invented the first battery powered headlamp giving lighting where it’s needed, when it’s needed, with hands-free functionality. Today there are over a dozen headlamps that make up our range with models developed specifically for both sport and professional users.

The Lunar Round must be completed entirely in the hours of darkness, which means you’ll need a headlamp, but which one? Ambient light, weight, brightness, ease of use, cost, comfort and stability are all key factors when deciding which headlamp to use with Petzl continuing to be at the forefront of design and innovation with the new NAO® RL joining the SWIFT® RL, IKO® CORE & BINDI® in our trail running range.
