Hey guys,
Just wondering what the Finesterre loop is like in October. I land in Santiago on the 5th of October and fly out on the 18th. I'm hoping to do the loop and I'm a solo female pilgrim so hoping it is safe to do.
Thank you in advance.

Hi, I walked Santiago – Finisterra – Muxia – Santiago, in November 2013, which took 9 days. I got lost a couple of times from Muxia back to Santiago, as the arrows point in the opposite direction. Otherwise I had no problems at all as a solo female pilgrim. Jill

Dre, Based on my "solo male October experiences" you will be fine. Some statement! Weather was favourable in late October 2015.
