Hi guys...looking for lightest possible sleeping bag.Up to £150.Any suggestions?
Thank you.
 
The 2024 Camino guides will be coming out little by little. Here is a collection of the ones that are out so far.
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 one from Galicia (the round) and the one from Castilla & Leon. Individually numbered and made by the same people that make the ones you see on your walk.
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.

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.
 
€2,-/day will present your project to thousands of visitors each day. All interested in the Camino de Santiago.

Thanks for your suggestion Dave...much appreciated.
 
Get a spanish phone number with Airalo. eSim, so no physical SIM card. Easy to use app to add more funds if needed.
