      dadaperegrino reacted to t2andreo's post in the thread Excessive heat with Thank you Thank you.
      Everyone is different. But in my case, i did not feel thirsty, I stopped sweating and my forearms were cool and clammy. Then I felt lightheaded. The next memory was waking up face-down: once on my curled-up arm, and another time on my broken...

      This is some good information, thanks! What would you say, based on your experience, are the warning signs? I've had a similar episode on the Via de la Plata and it really left me traumatised about walking in high temperatures.

      Thank you both! Based on weatherspark it seems that the most comfortable period for walking is from mid September! I’ll book that then 🙏

      Weather in Galicia is very unpredictable. 30+C is certainly a possibility at the beginning of September though it is unlikely to stay at that temperature for a long period. Weatherspark is a useful weather information site which can give you...

      Hi all, I am planning to hike from Ponte de Lima to Santiago, following the Spiritual Variant, in September this year. I am reading the following book Stone & Water: Walking the Spiritual Variant and I'm a bit worried when I read that at the...
