Hello.
I would like to share my packing list to Camino Frances (summer), which I packed and what I should have had packed, and overall the bare essentials to pack to hike the Camino.

You can find my article here - http://www.walk-the-camino.com/packing-list/

Would be glad to hear your thoughts about it. Regards, Erwin.

The one from Galicia (the round) and the one from Castilla & Leon. Individually numbered and made by the same people that make the ones you see on your walk.
Are you asking for feedback on your list? If yes, here it is:

Needle and Thread for blisters - best way to get an infection
Multi-tool - what kind? weight? Normally a pocket knife with a corkscrew is sufficient, never needed a multi-tool myself.
hoodie - I assume that will be your warm layer, but what about rain gear?
toiletries - a bit general, I have seen tiny toilet bags and so sizeable ones that it looked like the pilgrim in question had emptied the local drugstore or similar

Missing - hat or similar for sun protection, pilgrims passport, id papers, money belt, water bottles, first aid kit, guide book or app etc.

Buen Camino, SY
