I'm seeing more and more people (still a very small group) talking about using an umbrella. At first I thought this sounded very cumbersome. However, it seems that most who do carry one, figure out a way to rig it so that they don't have to actually hold it and the reviews are overwhelming positive. I like to travel as light as possible and have made do with a Tilley hat and sunscreen but may consider a lightweight umbrella for my next trip.
That's very true. People often think that mid day is the hottest, but actually it is about 4 or 5pm.the heat does not decrease in the afternoon, quite the opposite....
The handless Eroschrim has a very long shaf, as well as clips you can use to attach it to a backpack. I just put the shaft through the backpack's staps and voila.I'm seeing more and more people (still a very small group) talking about using an umbrella.

So I have just booked my flights! Officially walking the Camino Frances in July this year. Only 12 weeks away!
I know it will be hot - but does anyone have advice about how hot it can get? Also does this change along the route?
Other than, keeping hydrated, sunscreen and hat - any advice on walking in the heat?
Thanks,

I've just booked my return flight.....took a while to decide which one to settle on after factoring in several possibilities! What date are you flying out Anna? I'm arriving in SJPDP on 16th July. May see you out there!
I will be a bit ahead of you set off on the 1st July... getting very excited but also slightly nervous.
I walked from SJDPP to Viana last July. It rained when we were crossing the mountains. We arrived wet and cold into Roncevalles and they didn't provide blankets! After that it was very warm and we coped by walking in the early mornings, starting at 6am so we were at our destination before midday. Buen caminoHi all,
