    Pamplona to Burgos in late September 2024 - albuerges and weather?

    I’d advise checking the weather forecast right up to the day of departure. I typically walk from mid September through to early April. September can often be lovely and warm and dry - or totally the opposite.

    Pamplona to Burgos in late September 2024 - albuerges and weather?

    My second Camino (2017 I think) was in September and I had very nice weather pretty much the entire time. I had a liner then and I always only bring a liner - end March early April too. Some recommendations between your start and end point include: Estella - Albergue Agora, Los Arcos - Casa de...

    Pamplona to Burgos in late September 2024 - albuerges and weather?

    Hi all, I will be walking some of the Frances again starting in late September. My other two trips were in the early Spring. What might I expect in terms of weather in late Sept,-early Oct? Do I need a sleeping bag or will my silk liner be sufficient? Also, if you have favorite albergues...

    Spring has sprung?

    I’m on the CF now in Trabadelo. Wildflowers are blooming and trees are budding! Grapevines have leaves on them!

    Spring has sprung?

    Hello! We are currently walking the CF. We started in St. Jean on April 11 and are currently in Navarret. Weather has been beautiful. The fields are very lush from the rains they had around Easter. Some trees are out, some are not. Lots of wildflowers. Lots of poppies too. Each year will be a...

    Spring has sprung?

    Greetings. I walked the camino in September and October, had great weather, and got to see a bit of fall colors as I got closer to Santiago. The meseta was pretty bare because the harvest had already been take in. I'm thinking about walking the camino again next April/May to get a different...

    Rain Pants?

    This is a "time of year" thing. From May through September, the rain pants are not needed. Synthetic fiber walking pants or shorts will dry very fast. We all know that bare skin is also drip-dry. I have worn REI "Sahara" 100 nylon fabric, zip-off cargo pants for the past decade. They dry from...

    Just a liner or sleeping bag? (Possible weather change)

    REI brand Helio is <$80. I took that with me for my Sept/Oct Camino from Leon > SDC. It is very compact and light weight. Use a compression sack to pack it down. It worked beautifully for me.

    Just a liner or sleeping bag? (Possible weather change)

    Our first Frances was from Sep 9th to October 16th. We brought 40 degree sleeping bags and they were far too warm. A room full of sleeping pilgrims can create a lot of heat. We've been using the Sea to Summit Reactor Extreme liner. It weights .36 kilogram, so much lighter than a sleeping bag...

    Just a liner or sleeping bag? (Possible weather change)

    I’ve been planning to just bring a liner instead of a sleeping bag for my Camino Frances, which I’m starting in August 11, so I’ve been planning for very hot weather, (up to 40 degrees C by some accounts) rendering a sleeping bag unnecessary, or so I’ve heard… …but then, It might take me well...

    Cancelling Camino - Soliciting Advice

    My situation exactly. Due to start from Porto in a few days, but fractured a bone in my foot a few weeks ago and still not right. Can walk about 5 km at most with difficulty. I plan for September and will do the Francis (all going well).

    Night stage recommendation?

    Another option, rather than walking all night, especially in the heat, is just to get out at 4:00 or 5:00 in the morning and walk 2-3 hours in the morning in the dark. We did that daily during very hot weather in September last year on the VdlP, and we treasured those hours. In the case of the...

    Late august 2024, route choices

    In August the Primitivo may be hot but would not have the tourist crowds of the coast. In September the coastal weather will likely be ideal. But there could be rain. In October there will be rain. Buen Camino

    Two backpacks?

    I am leaving April 14 to fly to Porto to begin my Camino. I was going to do as you are thinking…2 backpacks Over the course of packing and rearranging I have come up with “my perfect “ solution. I’m wanting only carry on so I started with a Sirius 24 and a Derek Alexander cross over bag. Into...

    What do you wish you had worried less about?

    Buen Camino HBS60! I did get my passport pickpocketed once (not on the Camino) so I have carried it in a tiny, light, soft cloth security pouch under my shirt, which gave me less to worry about. Probably sweaty in hot weather but last week Sarria-SdC have been cool/mild.

    Middle or end Sept?

    Hey Nic, You and mom planning to stay in albergues? I hope instead BnBs or other?

    Middle or end Sept?

    September is my favorite month but note: it rains more as the month goes on. More pilgrims at the start of the month.

    Middle or end Sept?

    I walked the Frances from mid-September to mid-October (SJPDP to SDC). A great time of year - cool mornings and evenings (typically) and warm days. It is the shoulder season so there is weather variance and like other peregrinos stated - there can be rain. I was blessed with only 2 days of...

    Middle or end Sept?

    Prepare for rain just in case. I walked the last week in September and the first week in October last year and it was perfect weather. A week after I finished there were torrential rains and flooding for over weeks straight. So you never know. From a historian point septis always safer than...
