Hello all,
I recently walked the Camino Frances in October and am now considering walking it again in May. Its a long story but basically my wife would like to attempt it and May would be more convenient even though I found the weather and numbers etc in October to be very really favourable.
I've looked at the stats and the weather seems only marginally warmer in May compared to October (This is important as we don't like the heat ) And as far as numbers go, the only figures that I have been able to find show that numbers in May are higher than October but not to a great extent, if I remember correctly.
Does anyone out there have first hand experience of condition in both May and October? Would love to hear your views.
Personally I would like to start Mid April but my wife is a little concerned about some of the unpredictable mountain weather in April.
Regards
Pablo
