This is a commonly asked question and one that cannot really be answered. You can look at historical data but it is just that, historical.I am considering starting my first Camino on March 27...searching for guidance on expected weather/rain from SJPDP March 27 through Santiago 5/1. Thank you!!
AEMET, the Spanish weather agency, publishes standard climate values on their website. Here are the pages for:I am considering starting my first Camino on March 27...searching for guidance on expected weather/rain from SJPDP March 27 through Santiago 5/1. Thank you!!
The OP is planning to walk from the end of March to the beginning of May, perhaps five weeks or so. That is if he is using a North American date format. Still not going to be one easy answer to this as one traverses the whole of northern Spain and the two or perhaps three distinct climate zones this entails.One spot; never mind 800km over 2.5 months.
The Napoleon Route is definitely closed until April 1st. It could also be closed after that because of weather conditions.The Napoleon pass might still be closed in end of March if there is too much snow up there
That is true, but one might follow the advice to travellers that they should pack for the climate and dress for the weather.My favourite website for historical weather data is Weatherspark.com. Enter the name of a town and it will give you past averages by day, month and year. But that doesn't help much to know what any particular day will bring!
