shoes for Camino Ingles in April conditions 2024

[ValB]

Hi All,
I am completing the Camino Ingles in April. I have just bought hiking trainers, as I find walking boots very heavy on my little, old feet. Hpwever, I am worried about conditions, with all this rain. Does anyone know what the paths are like and if there is any flooding, and is there any areas that are particularly muddy?
Thank you for any repsponses.
Muchas gracias

Welcome to the forum. I walked the Inglés the first week of April last year, the paths are excellent and even if it's raining when you are there I can't imagine you having any issues. Remember that Galacia gets quite a bit of rain, everything is built accordingly. I, too wore trail runners, they're an excellent choice for the Inglès. It's well marked, with great infrastructure. Enjoy!

I walked it in June last year. We had no rain but the path was always firm so I dont think you need worry.
