All food and accommodations are found along the way. Therefore you can leave your tent and food prep items at home. We will have more info on this in the future, but basically you need a couple changes of clothes, toiletries, a hat, hiking pole and a back pack. Oh, and a poncho if we get caught in the rain. During our 2021 pilgrimage, my backpack weighed about 15lbs. Ideally you stick to 10% of your body weight or less.
