starting my camino at SJPdP on Sept 29th, I'll be walking for about two weeks until I reach Burgos.
My plan all along was to take a cotton sleeping bag liner, which I already have, but now I'm having second thoughts and debating if I should take a sleeping bag
Hi Joseito,Hi all, I'm starting my camino at SJPdP on Sept 29th
This thread is turning out to be a Calander feature that no-one uses..Hoping to see you along the way (we are staying at Beilari),
She's got a point....So now you have two answer - both different.
It just depends on you.
Do you sleep warm or cold.
I found many albergues to be very cold in October with no heat.
I never travel the Camino without my lightweight down sleeping bag.
I've frozen in June in Santo Domingo.
@Derrybiketours, we are traveling from Pamplona via bus, so no help with the taxi, I'm sorry to say. Looking forward to seeing you!I was considering the Express Bourricot but need numbers to get the price down
Likewise, I'll be the pilgrim on the top bunk shivering in the Albergue@Derrybiketours, we are traveling from Pamplona via bus, so no help with the taxi, I'm sorry to say. Looking forward to seeing you!
Hi Joseito,
We are also starting from SJPP on Sept. 29 and are taking light weight sleeping bags because on previous trips to Spain in October we have been cold in buildings with no heat.
Hoping to see you along the way (we are staying at Beilari),
Elaine, Ned, and Marie
That's makes two shivering Pilgrims on the way, my routine involves walking in clothes I wore night before, walking into shower in Albergue with clothes on, washing clothes with black African soap, removing clothes and continue washing. Rinse and hang out to dry or pin to my pack following day. Retire for evening and change into fresh set of walking clothes and up and away already dressed at crack of dawn, I carry a 22 litre pack so everything is considered, tested and by no means would I describe a sleeping bag essential in September/October plus alternatives are just as efficient, Orisson is a good opportunity to break up first day and meet your Camino familyThanks everyone for the input, much appreciated! I don't get cold that easily, so I might just wing it with a liner and then if it gets too cold, just start putting on layers, like @Derrybiketours said.
Hopefully we'll see each other on the camino! I'm staying at a small hotel because I'll be arriving late by bus on the 28th and I'm only going up to Orisson on the 29th, so I wont be leaving super early, otherwise I would have definitely booked a bed at Beilari.
Hi all, I'm starting my camino at SJPdP on Sept 29th, I'll be walking for about two weeks until I reach Burgos.
I have my gear 95% complete, however, I'm still not sure about what to do for my sleeping gear. My plan all along was to take a cotton sleeping bag liner, which I already have, but now I'm having second thoughts and debating if I should take a light sleeping bag or not.
Any thoughts?
Thanks!

Be weary of the sting, took me by surprise first time I used it. One bar did 3 camino and skin smoother than proverbial babyOrdered a six-pack.
Every day’s a school day.
Sometimes, Dan, it is better to keep control over your night environment than to surrender it to others whom may not be able to meet your needs. Excellent choice carrying a down bag.First week in October in Najera I nearly froze my . . . Well let's just say it was cold! My dorm-mates left the window open and the cold draft also wafted in the smoke from the sidewalk below. ANYWAY - that night in particular I was quite thankful for my 32 degree 25 oz down sleeping bag. While all the albergues I stayed in offered blankets at an extra cost, I was happy to carry the extra weight.
I'd take it, its compact and gives flexibility to sleep with only liner if too hot, liner and sack if cooler and keeps inside of sleeping bag clean, only requiring washing liner that dries quickly.the liner now or not.
This is not my advice but in my experience I'm reminded of a friend I met on the trail who said 'opinions are like an aholes, everybody has one'also take lambswool gloves — I left them home this year, and though I started in June, there were mornings when my hands were frozen.
