Altus Superlight Sleeping Bag 600S

Description

Altus Superlight sleeping bag 600 S
It is definitely necessary to take a sleeping bag with you to your Camino de Santiago. Albergues has bunk bads to sleep, and they will provide you a sheet and a pillow cover, but you won’t get a proper cover or blanket. Or if they have a blanket on stock, perhaps 500 pilgrims already used that before you in the last 3 years:-)

Weight is a key question on the Camino. A sleeping liner seems to be a much better solution with its 200-300 g weight than a 600-700g sleeping bag. From the middle of June until middle of September, when the outside temperature is always above 30 C travel liner is adequate. Don’t forget that there are no air-conditions in the albergues, so summer nights are too warm to sleep in a sleeping bag. In autum, winter and spring always take a sleeping bag with you but choose the lighter version (600-700 g) which is comfortable between 10 and 20 C. All the albergues has heating, so the temperature never goes below 10 C.

Please forget to start walking on the Camino de Santiago with a sleeping bag, which is heavier than 1 kg (2.2 lb). It’s too heavy to carry
