Backpack...

Saint Francesco

New Member
Hi everyone... I have a private question... I will start my Camino in August for the first time. I have bought a Deuter 55+10 backpack which is really great but as I see now a little bit too heavy. I woud go now for a Deuter ACT lite 38+5. Will it be enough? It's the only model in the range 30-55L available in my town, in Croatia.
Thanks for your replies...

Having just gotten back, I will yell you, that that is the perfect size, I had a 55+ 10, and it was to heavy,and just an excuse to put more in.
You will be surprised with what you don't need. Leave the bed roll at home. The only time I used mine was the last day. We went to the beach in Vigo, and I used it for a mat. Leave the rain jacket and rain pants at home, a poncho that covers your pack will be plenty . Bring a hat that covers your head and face.
I pair of long pants that zip off to shorts, 1 pair shorts,2 light weight,fast dry shirts,2 underwear,3 pai
