From the individual views of the blog, one of the topics of most interest has been our packing list, so here it is again. After walking the Camino Francés last year, I've learned a great deal about what to bring and what to leave at home. The bottom line is that one can travel very light since you don't need much on the Camino outside the basics. As you will see from this list, we kept the weight of our packs down to 6.25 kg including our water. A pack this light was a real joy to carry. To walk far, carry less!
