Hi there, Last year I walked a section on the Camino Frances, then later in year, 2 weeks on the Portuguese. I would like to walk for approx 2 weeks (annual leave from work), this time with 2 novice Camino walker friends within reach of an airport to UK or Ireland. Ive been reading other posts &...

Hi there, Im starting the route from Sarria, then plan to do rest over 4 days, as I can only get one week off work. Is this realistic? What will weather be like? Was planning on only taking a fleece and light rain-mac to cover, if raining? Will I need a sleeping bag?
Thanks,S. :roll:
