Sleeping bag....or not?

[Orla]

Hi

Im planning on starting in St Jean on 5th Sept till early Oct.

Getting different advice on whether to bring a sleeping bag or whether a sheet bag would be sufficient?

Wonder can anyone give some advice? Sleeping bag Im considering is relatively small and light...only not compared to the sheet bag a friend has lent me (silk and extremely small!).

Thanks
Orla

Sleeping bag. At this time of the year it will be chilly in some parts at night.

I have done St jean to Santiago starting in September using just a silk sleeping bag liner, but on 25% of the nights needed a blanket as well, so a light weight sleeping bag is a smart move.

I have just done St jean to Santiago starting in July and the silk liner was all I needed.

Hi Leslie
thanks for the reply and just read Covey's as well. So sleeping bag it is then. Only three weeks to go to my trip. Booked flights yesterday, so now Im definitely going! Travelling alone, but hoping to meet some good people along and way!
