      I also found private albergues in Galicia that didn’t have to turn on the heat until Nov. 1 (it was 41 degrees) be prepared!

      Edupuschi reacted to Pilgrim9's post in the thread Temperature in albergues with Like Like.
      I have twice walked the Napoleon (high alpine) Route across the Pyrenees from SJPdP to Roncesvalles in May (not twice in same year, of course). Worried that I might become stranded overnight on the mountaintops by a late snowstorm or become...

      I think that it's a great strategy - probably because it's the one that I use! And you might be quite surprised by how small my blanket is - it's only about 35 in/89 cm wide and 60 in/152 cm long. It's just big enough to tuck inside my sleep sack.

      I started April 16th on Francis. Last time on Francis in 2018, same dates. Only one night this trip, I didn't need my very lightweight (50f) quilt. All but one night, "somebody" opened the windows. Glad I have my quilt and beanie hat. 6 of the 7...

      My blanket has the same length, but it is a bit wider (130 cm). It may require some ninja moves to tuck it inside (well, at least all that body movement shall generate some heat) :-)

      I‘ve been on the CF since April 2nd with a silken inliner. Just two nights ago, I got into an albergue with only one other person in a larger dormitory. Badly insulated (just the wooden roof above us), walls still cold from winter, no heating...

      Maybe go with the lightest WEIGHT, either the sleeping bag, or the liner/blanket combo. I always take a very light 800g sleeping bag summer AND winter, so that I am always self-sufficient – I can sleep outside in summer (if necessary, or...

      Edupuschi reacted to truenorthpilgrm's post in the thread Temperature in albergues with Like Like.
      I walked last April/mid-May, and never got cold at night. Body heat from other pilgrims really helps keep the room warm (sometimes too much!). Often times by 2am, the room can get quite stuffy, leaving me gasping for fresh air. All that to say...

      You will be fine. You can wear some extra clothing layers if necessary.

      Don't forget that you will also have to deal with those who want the windows open and those who want the windows closed, no matter what the temperature is inside or outside.
