Hi,
I am from Canada and will start walking from Tui on 2 October. Very exited, my first Camino!
Any suggestions are welcome :) Weather is a big concern, what to expect, how to prepare/ clothing...

Very light, comfortable and compressible poncho. Specially designed for protection against water for any activity.

Our Atmospheric H30 poncho offers lightness and waterproofness. Easily compressible and made with our Waterproof fabric, its heat-sealed interior seams guarantee its waterproofness. Includes carrying bag.

€60,-
Biana, you may have totally dry weather as fall can be a drier time often on the Camino. We did the Portuguese route from Porto in April and in 3 weeks, did not have a drop of rain as we got to Santiago and then went on to Finisterre and Muxia. This is highly unusual. Weeks later once we were home it got more seasonal and wet. That being said, you should have a rain poncho. For the early mornings, light gloves are good to have. Don't bring a heavy jacket, instead a light weight shell is good for wind protection. A fleece is good as well. Think layers where you can add or subtract to stay at a comfortable temperature. For early mornings in April, I often wore a knitted ski hat, but we had unseasonably warm weather in April this year, so I did not use this as much as previous trips. On cooler days, having warm hands, feet and head keep you comfortable, but since you are from Canada, you know all this!

Thank you very much for the valuable information! I'll be asking, probably a lot of questions :)
