As you probably have guessed, the man difference between these two types of sleeping bags is how much the bag weighs. A light weight sleeping bag consists of having a lighter material used for the filler inside of it.

You will definitely want one of these light weight sleeping bags if you are a person who is a very active camper and prefers to hike through areas where having a normal weight sleeping bag could bog you down.
