I use a Sea to Summit down liner which weighs about 400 gm (maybe 450gm). It is perfect for me. It has a drawstring at the bottom to make it into a bag or opened out it works well as a quilt. If it is cold I layer up inside with thermals, polar fleece vest, socks. It depends how warm you sleep, but it is great for me, I sleep well and the weight is a pleasure in my pack!

Sea to Summit does not list a down liner. Do you know the name of it?

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.

Yes, Phillypilgrim, that's the one - the Tr. I also really like that it opens out which means that for a bit of luxury I hire sheets for a couple of euros (aah, bliss) and use the blanket function. I must add, though, that you need to think how hot you sleep - when I'm sleeping comfortably with that, my husband is tucked up in a much warmer down sleeping bag.

Get a spanish phone number with Airalo. eSim, so no physical SIM card. Easy to use app to add more funds if needed.
Ideal sleeping bag liner whether we want to add a thermal plus to our bag, or if we want to use it alone to sleep in shelters or hostels. Thanks to its mummy shape, it adapts perfectly to our body.

I have an unused Mont Bell Thermal Sheet, just in case anyone is looking for one. Imported from Switzerland. My Le Puy Camino last year was delayed so ended up buying a warmer Katabatic Quilt as I wild camped.
