About Näak

Näak is a Montreal sports nutrition brand. It makes energy bars, gels and electrolyte drinks designed with ultra-trail runners in mind, people who spend many hours on their feet in the mountains.

Näak suits runners, cyclists, cross-country skiers and hikers who need steady fuel on long outings. It is wise to test bars and gels during training, not for the first time on race day. A few bars also slip easily into a pack for a long day hike in the Laurentians or the Eastern Townships. It is endurance fuel developed by a team based in Montreal.
