The only packing list you’ll ever need! This is my second time walking the Camino Francés from SaintJeanPieddePort to Santiago de Compostela. I walked this as part of a long Camino from Le PuyenVelay. We walked the Camino Francés section in September 2023.

Here's a complete list of gear I brought in my 24 liter backpack, what I would change for different seasons, and how I only brought what I needed. Your walk can be so much more pleasant, carrying only what you need. A lighter bag is a happier peregrina!

Gold stars if you can count how many times I say “merino wool.”

We spent 26 days completing our Camino journey. This is my fifth Camino; I have walked all of them with an ultralight pack.
