- Time of past OR future Camino
- Planned
Good morning fellow travelers. A friend of mine from UK recently sent me a note saying October on the Camino Portuguese can be cold and rainy. My dates are October 5th thru October 14th. What is off shoulder season, because I can back up the dates to end of September if necessar.
1). Is this true?
2). Does that mean that waterproof trainers (though not generally recommended) are best during that time of year?
3). If packing light, is a poncho enough with a light weight sweater or does it require heavier rain/warm jackets with waterproof pants?
4). Are there bus/taxi/private drivers around the Camino Portugues that rescue pilgrims who get soaked and cold and drop them off at accommodations?
Please forgive me if these questions have been answered. It’s quite an undertaking for me and I’m abit anxious.
