Warmth corresponds to the external ambient temperature during the night.
Today, there are 3 main temperature categories :
- Warm, which is above 20°
- Mild, which is between 10 and 20°
- Cold, which is between 10 and 0°
Ease of transport is determined by weight and compactness.
For hiking, the sleeping bag will be more comfortable so heavier and more compact.
For trekking, favour a lighter and less compact sleeping bag in order to reduce the fatigue while carrying it and for it to take less space during your trip.
Comfort will always take precedence when it comes to camping.
When trekking, your mattress will be thinner so it's easier to carry.
