I walked the Mozarábe in Oct./Nov. 2018. I stayed in municipal Albergues whenever possible. The Amigos in Almeria were really helpful and welcoming.
I would think that this route would be snowy in winter, I saw references in visitor books in some Albergues to that effect.
With regard to a June...
Hi,
I walked Alméria to Mérida in Oct. 2018. It is a very solitary Camino-I Met very few pilgrims along the route. I stayed mostly in Albergues when available and some were excellent. No resident hospitaleros usually, a number to ring to get the key or else from the local police. I only reserved...

Regards, John.
Hi formysons,
The La Plata in mid-August would be very hot. I did it in 2015 from Seville leaving there on October 14th and I found the first couple of weeks quite hot. The day's got up to 27* Celsius even then and there is very little shade on this Camino. However it is a great Camino, not...
