What type of backpack should I bring to the Camino de Santiago?

If you are going to carry your luggage all along the Camino de Santiago, it is important that you have a good backpack as an ally. These are, broadly speaking, the keys to choose it:

• Lightweight: the lighter the better.
• Strong seams
• Padded shoulder pads and lumbar reinforcement
• Adjustable waist and chest straps
• Can be adjusted to your height
• Waterproof rain cover
• Preferably with separate compartments
• Top and side pockets
