- Time of past OR future Camino
- French (starting late July)
Hello Camino friends. I'm preparing for my first Camino, it will be the Frances, starting in late July from SJPDP. I have been reading very conflicting advice regarding sleeping bags and I hope I can get the right answers here.
I would like to stay at cheap public albergues half the time or more, low-cost private albergues some of the time, and maybe the occasional luxury of a private bedroom here and there.
I will definitely carry a sleeping bag liner (S2S Reactor), but I'd rather not bring a sleeping bag if it's not a 'must'. I have an ultralight down sleeping bag which I love, but at around 700 grams, it's over 10% of the total weight I'm aiming for.
I expect my night at Orisson to be the coldest, given the altitude (would that albergue have blankets / be warm enough?).
I plan to wear a merino top and shorts to sleep, inside the liner. I could even wear my rain jacket and pants if I need more warmth...
Grateful for any tips and comments relevant to my time of year and route.
Cheers
Laura
