Dimensions
The Deuter AC Lite 17 is a lightweight hiking daypack for people who want a ventilated carry system, a practical 17L capacity and quick access to everyday trail essentials.
- 17L capacity: Fits the essentials for light day hikes, travel and active daily use without the bulk of a multi-day pack.
- Aircomfort back system: Creates a ventilated gap between the pack and back while the spring-steel frame helps distribute the load.
- Full-length front opening: Makes it easier to see and reach items throughout the main compartment.
- 2L hydration compatibility: The dedicated drinking-system compartment supports a compatible reservoir; the reservoir is not confirmed as included.
- Practical organisation: Includes a zipped top pocket, side smartphone pocket, stretch mesh side pockets and gear or pole attachment points.
- Removable rain cover: Adds a useful weather layer for day outings; the backpack itself is not claimed to be waterproof.
Deuter AC Lite 17 for light day hikes
This 17L hiking daypack is a good fit for light day hikes, travel and active commutes where ventilation and easy access matter. The front central zipper opens the main compartment widely, while the phone pocket, top pocket and side storage keep small items easier to separate. It is less suited to overnight trips or users who routinely carry bulky equipment.
Ventilated carry with easy access
The Aircomfort system is designed around airflow and a close, stable carry, while the full-length front opening gives a clearer view into the main compartment.
- Two-way adjustable sternum strap.
- Breathable hip fins and round-profile spring-steel frame.
- Pole attachment and shoulder-strap glasses stow system.

For the supplied 3420121 model, the verified dimensions are 48 × 28 × 20 cm (L × W × D) and the listed weight is 840g. The official page for a different newer product code reports different dimensions and weight, so this listing follows the exact supplied 3420121 SKU data.
Does the AC Lite 17 support a hydration system?
Yes. The pack has a drinking-system compartment compatible with up to a 2L hydration system. The reservoir itself is not confirmed as included.
