The lightest waterproof jackets are for running and adrenaline sports, for walking and trekking you will probably want more features or a more durable garment, especially if you willl be carrying a rucksack. Adventure racers will use something in between. The lightest garments are made with a 2.5 layer construction, a 3 layer alternative will be more robust.
