- Time of past OR future Camino
- March 2015 Ssint jean to Santiago
I start my Camino from saint jean pied de port on march 3rd,
The Napoleon Route - Orrison is not open until April and weather might be a issue on that route and it could be advised it is not safe to travel so I will check with the pilgrims office and locals once I arrive in saint jean.
The Valcarlos Route - I decided I would travel from Saint jean on the Valcarlos route to Roncesvalles the same day. I know weather can change on a dime while crossing the Pyrenees, what are people's experiences with weather along the routes at the beginning of march . If the weather is good and taking the Napoleon route is clear I might change my mind and travel that route once I see the weather with my own eyes! I don't want to be on the Napoleon route and weather go south and get stuck since Orrison is closed from what I have read there is a emergency hut a long that route.
