      I would not bring a lock. It signifies there is something of value in your bag to take. Anything of value should be on your person or with you (even in the shower) at all times. I have used a silk liner bag only in the summer. In cooler weather...

      And here's the obligatory suggestion to leave the sleeping bag at home and take only a liner. I walked the CF two years go around the same time and found that a liner was quite sufficient, and certainly much lighter than a sleeping bag. That...

      I brought a small combination lock. I only used it a couple of times as i keep valuables on me at all times. my backpack usually doesn't fit in lockers. Probably more useful in non-pilgrim/city hostels. I'd say a lock isn't essential but it's...

      I have started walking the camino as early as Mar, and as late as mid-May. I have always carried a sleeping bag and liner, and used it even in early Jun. It has allowed me to use Xunta, parroquial and similar albergues which did not provide...

      Hello everyone, Starting my first Camino 5/19! I'd love some input on a couple of things as I plan and pack. I'm walking the CF, solo. I plan on bringing a silk sleeping bag liner. What kind of sleeping bag (or down duvet, maybe?) would you...
