    Camino Frances, what to expect in October

    Hi Sue -- I walked the Camino Sept 18-Oct 25 in 2015. The weather was temperate with only a couple of really not evenings/nights, a few hot days, a few colder days (sweater weather), three really rainy days. I thought it was just the best time of year, and most nights you can call ahead to...

    Well isn't life full of unexpected things

    September is quite a lovely time for the Camino. I walked Sept 18-Oct 25 in 2015. Two really miserable days, 7 or 8 misty/cool days. The rest were beautiful. As was the experience. David in Nova Scotia
