One kilo carried by that woman backpacker (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

hiker

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'backpacker' is the definition.
(thesaurus)

'one kilo carried by that woman' is the wordplay.
'one kilo' becomes 'k' (phonetic alphabet: alpha, bravo, charlie etc.).
'carried by' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'that woman' becomes 'hier' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'k' going inside 'hier' is 'HIKER'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for hiker that I've seen before include "One rambling" , "Walker for pleasure" , "Someone walking (with backpack?)" , "I could be on the trail" , "Distance walker" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
