[QUOTE="andonius, post: 256366, member: 38754"] Be careful with the weather. If you're doing the beautiful Camino Ingles, you'll be walking the northern part of Spain, and the weather there is different from the rest of the country. Even in summer temperatures are softer and it rains quite a lot. In 2014, in june we had 20 days of rain in Ferrol, 17 days in july and ¡25 days of rain in August!. Yes, it was an unausual rainy year, but anyway you must expect some rain in Camino Ingles any time of year. ¡Don't forget your rain gear just in case! Galicia's weather is usually softer than that of the rest of Spain. In the central Spain's meseta in August you can have temperatures above 40º Celsius (104º Farenheit), but in Galicia that is not normal at all. Daily average of temperatures in northern Galicia is in June in the range of 16 to 22º Celsius (60 to 72º Farenheit). That means that you may have pretty cold early mornings and late evenings but comfortable midday hours . So I recommend to take at least a piece of clothing for cold weather. A light Polar Fleece is what I use and it's more than enough. Travelling from Madrid to Ferrol is direct by train. You have three direct trains from Madrid Chamartin Station to Ferrol per day (make sure you go to Chamartin station in Madrid, as in Madrid there are two major train stations: Chamartin and Atocha) . If you take the night train (with normal seated places ,cabins with four beds and luxurious private cabins with two beds and private bathroom in the cabin) you'll arrive to Ferrol at 9:30 in the morning so you can start walking right away if you want (Ferrol train Station is in the center of the city and not more than 400 meters far from the Camino). The last part of the train trip (from Betanzos to Ferrol) follows almost exactly the path you'll undo walking the next days. It's beautiful to watch it and anticipate the walk from the train's window. Buen Camino¡¡¡ [/QUOTE]
