Here is some information regarding what you need to bring, and what to expect for the weather during the month of June, in Spain!
Week 1 at the Refuge/House
You may bring 1 carry-on size suitcase
for the week at the house. For logistical reasons and space at the house, there
is not room for everyone to have a full sized suitcase.
- Warm jacket (sweatshirt, polar, etc.) Ligonde
can be very cold in the
morning and at night. It is not typical Spanish weather!
- Bible, notebook, pen
- Clothes
1 week on the Camino
You may bring 1 medium-sized
backpack (about 40 liters) and it should weigh around 10% of your weight, or
less.
Keep in mind that you will have the
possibility of washing clothes by hand during the hike.
This list is a suggested packing list; you must decide what to bring according to your
personal needs and what you consider important!
- Water bottle
- Good
hiking or running shoes (not new
ones; have them broken in beforehand!)
- 2 t-shirts
- 2 pairs of shorts
- 1 pair of trousers
- Underwear
- Socks for hiking
- Flip-flops
(we recommend ones with Velcro, so
you can walk with them on the camino if necessary)

not)
- Toiletries
(gel-shampoo, deodorant, tooth brush,...)
- Raincoat (perfect if it fits
over your backpack)
