Hello WM
I have just returned from my walk and I can say the weather on the Norte is certainly varied: I crossed into Spain on June 14th, a blistering hot day. June 15th pouring rain and cold. That sort of back and forth weather lasted nearly two weeks. Never really hot and never really cold. I was told the weather in the Autumn is generally more settled but you just never know. Mornings in July could be 14 - 15 degrees with the afternoons 25+. You are on or near the coast so the sea is always a factor. Fog can suddenly roll in and the temp will plummet like a lead ball, and 15 minutes later the sweat is pouring off your brow. You get what I mean by now. That's the Camino.
buen Camino

Last May I walked the first part of the Norte in the opposite direction, from Santander to Irun. Since I only had two weeks and couldn't reach Santiago anyway, I wanted to swim against the tide...
Tomorrow I fly to Bilbao to start my 5th stint on the Camino. I did the Frances in three parts (2016, 2017 and 2022). Last year I did the Portuguese from Porto. I did the first 200 km of the...
I thought I had this all figured out, but I have ended up with 2 train tickets from San Sebastian (I don't even know if it's the airport or the town) to Irun, instead of ONE that goes all the way...
Hi! I’m a Camino newbie planning on walking Camino del Norte this May-June. I have previous hiking experience and do well on longer distances and so on, but not any super recent multi day long...
I’m on day 2 of the CDN and I’m just blown away by the views. Day 1 Irun to San Sebastián, day 2 San Sebastián to Askizu Buen Camino
