[QUOTE="mspath, post: 577919, member: 7963"] Winter is a wonderful time to walk but you must be prepared! To begin your research/planning do check the helpful posts/links in this recent forum thread. [URL]https://www.caminodesantiago.me/community/threads/camino-winter-advice.51183/[/URL] Difficult CF stretches after winter storms might be from Najera to Santo Domingo de la Calzada or across the Montes de Oca from Villafranca as well as Monte Irago and, of course, to and from O Cebreiro. Twice during winter caminos I have sat out true blizzards; in Villafranca Montes de Oca, February 25, 26, 2006 and Foncebadón, March 5,6, 2009. Even late November 2012 the climb up to O Cebreiro was packed with snow. You can read my blog accounts of these three memorable storms here. [URL]http://mermore.blogspot.fr/p/memories.html[/URL] Luckily open albergues offered welcoming shelter, heat and companionship. Most who walk in late autumn and winter wear and carry lightweight but warm layers which can easily be added or removed while walking. Each pilgrim develops a favorite combo. Scan the Forum's Equipment topic [URL]http://www.caminodesantiago.me/community/forums/equipment-questions.30/[/URL] to see a multitude of varied approaches. Here's mine [URL]http://mermore.blogspot.fr/p/kit-and-tips.html[/URL] Enjoy the planning and Buen camino! [/QUOTE]
