sleeping bag

There. I said it. I toss and turn during the night and get tangled up with the bag wrapped around my feet. I’m not proud of it. I’m thinking of getting a new, lightweight bag for my next adventure. My trusty old rectangular bag has seen better days. Anyone have a good resource for a...

I hope to start the Camino Mozarabe from Almeria to Cordoba on April 9th. Will I need to bring a sleeping bag or will my silk liner suffice? I am trying to cut down on my weight but don't want to be cold either....

I am planning to start from SJPP on 1st June. I want to keep my backpack to a minimum, but am unsure about taking a sleeping bag, which I do not want to do. Late last July and early August, I found some mornings cold, Roncesvalle in particular may be cold, due to altitude and early in the month...

Hi all, The sleeping bag question. I have gotten so many different views on this. I start the Camino Portugese in April in Tomar and Walk to Santiago. Should I bring a sleeping bag? I plan to stay in Albergues. Thanks in advance, Brid

Hi All I'm planning my first taste of a Camino, doing the 100km from Sarria starting next week. I've found the forum very useful in helping me put together a packing list but I can't find any specifics on sleeping bags. Am I likely to need one? Thanking you in advance for helping me :)

Hello, new to the Camino family, walking from SJPP, but planning on the comfort route, transporting luggage for each day and planning on staying in hotels/pensiones etc. Not the Auberges. Do we need any kind of sleeping bag/blankets/liners etc? Do the Auberges provide anything if we are stuck...

Has anyone tried a Rumpl blanket? Thought it might be a good/lighter alternative to a sleeping bag in summer months. If you have, would love to hear your feedback as they're quite exxy! Or can anyone recommend good blankets/ultra light sleeping bags? Thanks!

I would like to travel as light as possible. The albergues that offer private rooms, are sheets and blankets included? I also want to be flexible and avoid reserving rooms in advance. I realize it’s just a guess at this point, but if I do albergue private rooms, pensiones, and hotels, how...

Hi! Found myself hung up on another equipment question and know folks on this forum are kind and helpful so thought I'd ask you all! Which sleeping bag should I take? I'm Frances hiking in April/early May, and decided a bag would work better for me then than a liner. I just graduated (woohoo!)...

I intend to walk the Camino Frances from end of April- begin june. In older pre-covid posts I read that you don't need a sleeping bag and blankets are provided in most of the albergues and hostels. A sleep liner would be sufficient. Now I read somewhere that this is no longer the case, probably...

I am looking at lightweight & compact sleeping bags to use on the CF starting from SJJP 16th May. Has anyone used a Snugpack sleep bag

I'm planning on taking a sleeping bag on my first hike (at least for the first couple of weeks) but wonder what is the most common way to carry it. Most packs have straps to tie the bag to the bottom but ii seems to me that the thing would be whapping your rear end with every step. I'm 5'10"...

Hi … I’m hoping to do the CF in April 2022 … do you think I would need to take a sleeping bag? Thanks Austin

Hello everyone, I'm planning my first Camino starting early March as that is only period of year I could possibly do it. I do not hike, do not camp, so I have to buy full new equipment and from what I read sleeping bag is a must at that time of year, especially with covid around. I'm 2...

I carried and sometimes used, a light sleeping bag on my camino Frances. There was some weight and bulk involved. I am wondering about substituting a mylar space blanket for next time. They cost and weigh next to nothing. (often sold in packs of 10/// might be a fun thing to share). I've...

I will be starting the camino del Norte next week and continue on the ruta del Mar first week of October. I am in a dilemma wether to cary only a liner bag or sleeping bag. There is a difference of 400gms in weight. Can anyone help me to decide. I appreciate opinions. Thank you and buen camino...

Will be walking from September 7-19 and due to COVID, have decided to stay in hotels rather than albergues. I am thinking I might not need to bring a sleeping bag. I wonder what experienced pilgrims think.

May I please have recommendations on the best lightweight "quilt" to use with silk liner for full French Camino end of Sept until mid Nov? Thank you

Hi, we are planning a first time walk from SJPdP to Santiago starting early September this year. Mostly staying in Alburgues we hope. We've done a lot of research online and are pretty happy with most items to pack - except for sleeping... liner only, liner and down quilt, or lightweight down...

I'm deciding between the Browint XL liner, available on amazon for $64 US and the Lone Wolf Special Edition liner, available from the treksilk website for $50 plus shipping. The Lone Wolf ships from Vietnam and takes a few weeks, the Browint is available on amazon prime right now and could be...
