Buen Camino Moldaviteman! The best is yet to come... The weather has been ridiculously warm in my corner of Galicia (near Muxia), but I have walked the route you are taking in late March and encountered snow at O Cebrero! Be prepared for all weathers - you can always ditch what you don't need along the way.

Have had 5 hot and cloud-free days from SJPP and it was hot and windy but with some cloud cover yesterday. Today though it was 100% cloud cover and constant drizzle from Viana, with it increasing from Navarrete. Temperature was down significantly.

I've seen forecasts of snow for Burgos.

Hi Moldaviteman, I've just walked Villafranca up o 'cebriero on 22nd/23rd March and it was ideal weather. Was warm, no rain, fog, mist but difficult to find shade from La Laguna to the top
Buen Camino
