What were your goals for this year? Are you trying to get out more? You’re probably also trying to stay hydrated. There’s a way of bringing those two things together: a water bottle made especially for travelling. And travelling can mean anything, whether you go hiking in the wilderness for fun, go camping regularly, or you’re back and forth from the gym every day. Being on the move requires water.

But you can go one better. How about a bottle that filters water from all its impurities and unwanted elements? From the taste of chlorine to sickness-inducing bacteria.

If that sounds good to you, we’ve rounded up a selection of filter water bottles. But first up, here’s some information to help you decide which of these bottles suits you and you’re lifestyle best.

Do you need a filter water bottle?

There are lots of reasons to get a filtered water bottle. Putting your health aside, it’s better for the environment. Having a reusable bottle of any kind can save anything in the range of 400 to 700 single use plastic bottles. And there are other reasons, of course. Whether you just want to remove the taste of chlorine, or if you’re visiting somewhere with an unclean or uncertain water supply.

How do filter water bottles work?

Filter water bottles work in a variety of ways. Some use filters that have a membrane with microscopic pores, which trap dirt and bacteria, while carbon capsules absorb elements too. Some trap unwanted elements while still allowing healthy minerals to pass through. Others infuse the water with goodness and minerals. There are even tech-based filters, which use UV technology to kill bio-contaminants. As well as killing unwanted nasties, filters can also remove the taste of chlorine. That means you can fill it up with tap water and still get that fresh, natural taste.

Can you take filter water bottles hiking?

Some bottles are made for outdoor pursuits. You can use them to scoop water from natural sources — lakes, rivers, puddles, or streams — and drink without worry. These bottles are designed to remove waterborne bacteria, protozoan parasites, and viruses — not to mention sediment, silt, chemicals, and metals. These bottles are essential items for campers, hikers, and lovers of the great outdoors.

What is the best filter water bottle?

Ultimately, that’s a “you” decision. Because only you know where and how you’ll make use of a filter water bottle — where you’re clambering up a mountain or simply clocking up the miles on the daily commute. What we can do is help point you in the right direction.
