The Best Packable Travel Towels

We love a plush, thirsty bath towel, but a campsite or suitcase just isn’t the place for one—there, we want a quick-drying, packable travel towel. After putting 20 such towels through 60 hours of testing—including an intense day of sand and surf at the beach—we’ve concluded the PackTowl Personal offers the best balance of drying time, packability, and odor resistance without compromising comfort and design. A good option for nearly every towel-related scenario, it’s lightweight, extra-large, and supersoft, making it usable for both car camping and travel into the backcountry.
