    Hi Adrian, thank you for sharing your winter Camino experience I have found your post very helpful. I am from sunny NQ Townsville.

    Winter Camino Late Jan-mid March 2022

    Thanks Tom! I’m so glad you had a great Winter Camino, your info has really given me a confidence boost. I agree with you about boots - I am definitely thinking boots for this winter Camino.
