    Clothing on the Via de la Plata

    Not at all. I walk all my Caminos and local Tasmania walks in shorts no matter the season. I do take leggings for night wear in winter or a light weight dress in summer. Enjoy VDLP it’s a lovely walk

    Crowding on the Camino Francés?

    I am currently on Dos Faros after doing Norte. Norte was busier then it has been in other times I walked there however I tried France and for me it was unbearable.
