I have been planning to return and rejoin the path from Leon next week. ( Main route)
I am wondering whether it might be better to wait until later in April to rejoin the path, my hope is to address a few things which mean I can listen loudly: so ideally, avoid the rain / wet feet, not be slammed among crowds and have cafes / albergues open. What do you think? I'd be curious to hear of experiences from March and April on that stretch previously.
Last year I walked Frances to Leon - a profound and deep experience
I have the following questions currently:
1 - How is the weather? I read something about very muddy paths and rain.
2 - What's open, are the cafes and albergues open? One of the things I love is getting that first 10km under the belt before a coffee and some food.
3 - How far do you think I can realistically walk in 7 days?
4 - How would I then get onto Santiago for a flight?
5 - I usually travel only with what I wear, I am assuming it's going to need some warm clothes, is this correct? Any essentials at this time of year? Sleeping bag? (Im a miserable cold person!)
6 - walking over Easter, is it recommended?
Thanks in advance for your help.
