Hi guys...looking for lightest possible sleeping bag.Up to £150.Any suggestions?
Thank you.
 
Technical backpack for day trips with backpack cover and internal compartment for the hydration bladder. Ideal daypack for excursions where we need a medium capacity backpack. The back with Air Flow System creates large air channels that will keep our back as cool as possible.

€83,-
I'm sure you'll get lots of suggestions.
Mine is light, but not the lightest.
Sea to Summit Tr1. 463 gms. Very warm.
 
The 2024 Camino guides will be coming out little by little. Here is a collection of the ones that are out so far.
Mine is light but not superlight, 900 gms I think, but is a brilliant bag. Made by Snugpak, who make stuff for our military and sell it to citizens too, their "jungle bag". Built in zip-away mosquito net (no bed bugs!!!) and zipped all round so it can be opened out and used as a throw too. Rectangular rather than mummy so stretch out! Sells at about £50 or under - great bag!

+1 for the Snugpak Jungle bag, I have over 100 nights in mine and it's still going strong, almost like new. I find it comfortable down to about 12C wearing just a normal T-shirt. It can washed in a machine with normal detergent and drys outside on a line in a couple of hours if it's sunny or windy. It can also be unzipped into a large rectangular blanket so it can be used in multiple ways. Seems ideal for Camino life.
 
I bought a sleeping bag liner from Patagonia that weighs 335g. I was concerned about it having no zipper but found it easier to get in and out of than I thought. It was warm enough for September- early October.
 
Down bag (90/10 duvet) of 700 fills with 180 g (6.34 ounces) of filling. Mummy-shaped structure, ideal when you are looking for lightness with great heating performance.

Ohhh... I think it is me and that I must turn (or spin) whilst sleeping but I just cannot stand a mummy bag .. can't spread legs or feet and in the morning I am trapped in a corkscrew shape like a twisted caterpillar 😂
 
Patagonia Lightweight Sleeping Bag at 335 g. This is what I use for caminos. It's discontinued, but you can still find it online. It is plenty roomy. I carry both a silk liner (Rab) and this bag, depending on the route.
 
Ideal pocket guides for during & after your Camino. Each weighs only 1.4 oz (40g)!
