Hi, Pilgrims staying at Roncesvalles albergue at the moment (March – April 2022) – what do you need in the way of sleeping equipment? I understand that a disposable sheet and pillow case is now included in the cost? Are you bringing your own sleeping bags? Or is there heating, and you are using liners? Many thanks!

Just trying to work out how one can be warm enough in Roncesvalles in March with just a liner.
Was there heating?
Did you wear all your clothes?
Was the weather particularly warm that week?
Thanks!

Yes, that's why I am wondering how pilgrims are staying warm in Roncesvalles in March.
 
There is a heating system in the albergue, but we always advise to bring a sleepingbag as we do not have blankets for the pilgrims. The weather at the moment is cold and wet and the moment, pilgrims arrive very cold in the albergue.
 
Altus 24 Liters daypack (DENON 24 H30)
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.

I was warm enough in my fleece liner and wore a baselayer bottom and a baselayer top. I did not bring a sleeping bag this Camino.
 
I was there last week on a cool and rainy night. There is heating in the Albergue, but I used a liner and kept my base layer on. It was fine… The guy in the next bunk had a sleeping bag but he just used it like a duvet.
 
Take a sleeping bag you'll need it at some stage any way!
