Thank you......do think May would be a better time? Or are these Caminos better done in the fall...September?
Wow. Those pics are just ‘the best’. June sounds like a good time.Actually, I think full summer is the peak season here. June, July and August. Sometimes, people report bed crunches in those times. Having walked it in June, July, and September, I can vouch for them all. I did have rain on the July walk, but it was still quite gorgeous. My June walk, though, was the most perfect you could ever imagine.

I just realized I forgot to answer the Vadiniense question.The Vadiniense starts in Potes at the monastry where the Lebañiego ends, has some mountain days that could be dicey in April (around Fuente De) but after that, it’s a pretty straight shot down to Mansilla de las Mulas. The Vadiniense intersects with the Salvador in Cistierna — how are you planning to combine them?
Hi, Barry,Thank you for the information. I didn't realize the Vadiniense intersected with the Salvador. I've been looking on the Gronze website and thought we would follow the Vadiniense until it intersected with Frances and pick up the Salvador in Leons. I just noticed on the Gronze website that the Vadiniense crosses the Viejo Camino....is this what you are referring to i.e where it intersects with the Salvador? What would you recommend ? Besides Gronze is there somewhere else where I could obtain more information on these Caminos?
It looks like we are going to have to delay our walk until mid September or early October. Any thoughts or comments on these times? I know there are no guarantees about snow but would these be good times to walk these Caminos.
Also we might try and extend our trip and walk the Magna Via Francigena in Sicily. I think I remember you made a comment about this walk awhile ago on another thread Did you walk it your self? Any thoughts/comments about this walk? Did you do any multi-day walks in Sicily that you could recommend?
Thank you again.
Hi again:
Yes we are planning on starting in San Vicente and walking the Lebaniego and then continuing on the Vadiniense. Do you know how well the trail is signed, particularly through the mountain sections? Is there any guide for the Vadiniense similar to Ender's guide for the Salvador?
Thank you
Barry
