Has anyone had experience with the Deuter ACT lite 40+10? Likes and dislikes? My first time on the Camino Frances, starting May 11th and trying to sort through my packing list. Thanks for any advice.

Rick - don't know the 40l Deuter, but I have the smaller 20L Aircomfort which I've found a brilliant pack.

I have the Deuter Guide 45+, which I find to be a very competent pack. I have not yet used it on multi-day walks, but it is comfortable on longer single day walks. It has a range of useful features, and I think it is a well thought through design. I would expect the other Deuter packs to be similar.

Regards,

Both my wife and I use deuter 32 futura's
One of these packs we have used for over 6 years and it is still going strong
They are good quality, well designed and certainly come with our recommendations
