Hi all
I am newbie looking to walk the Camino Portuguese for the first time starting off on the 25th August and ending on the 7th September (roughly). I have read and seen many different views around packing lists and essentials for this trip, but have pretty much come down a specific list of items. But i do have some queries regarding some pressing alternatives;
Pants versus shorts? - i plan on bringing a basic pair of gym shorts, very light weight, breathable and quick drying. For my change, i am planning on bringing Kathmandu X series pants, which are super comfortable, and breathable, but i am unsure about whether they could be too hot? any thoughts on the matter?
Concerning shirts, i’m just planning on 2x quick drying gym tees, and a longer sleeve.
My other items include but are not limited to;
1. Osprey Manta 34L pack
2. Sea to summit silk sleeping bag liner
3. Darn tough socks x2
4. Columbia brim hat
5. Altra lone peak 7 shoes
6. Basic medical kit
7. Quick drying gym towel which is super small to pack
What other basics may I have missed/overlooked?
Any recommendations and commentary on my questions would be most appreciated
