Hi, has anyone read about or travelled along the path during autumn?
What is the weather like? ...
We started from St. Jean PdP on October 3. Down there it was lovely mild and sunny. Very different up on the pass, shivering cold and windy.
Then came several warm and dry days with bright sunshine. Around mid-October around Burgos it was pouring with rain, and cold. Further on just a few days later, at O Cebreiro and in Galicia -we read here- there was much rain, leftover winds from 'Wilma', and early snow.
Meaning: In autumn you really have to come prepared for everything, from scorching sun to icy rain, plus drastic changes may be fast, and there are also local phenomena depending on altitude and locality.
On the other hand, to walk through the Pyrenees in autumn, with all the foliage in autumn colours is really wonderful, and as Ulysse rightly said, there should be no problem with accomodation anywhere at that time of the year.
Dunno if this is any help towards a decision.
