Hi everyone,

I'm on holiday and decided to walk from Santiago to Muxia. I have all the required gear but didn't come with a backpack. Any thoughts or ideas where I can purchase a secondhand option?

Kind Regards

Maybe check at Pilgrim House in Santiago. Sometimes people leave things there if they don't want to carry them home.
 
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.

€83,-
Or you can probably buy an inexpensive backpack at Decathlon. Go to the big store that's a bit outside the city for the best selection.
This Decathlon is at Costa Vella - the bus destination. IIRC bus lines LC5 and LC6 go from downtown to bus stop (parada) number 212 called Eslovenia. The Decathlon is across the street. It is HUGE.

If you take a taxi, ask the drive to take you to take you to Decathlon at Rua de Polonia 2.

Hope this helps.
