Pack a poncho!!!
I walked it in October to early November. I had perfect weather in 2018 in October when I walked. In November and it was away from the coast heading towards Santiago is when I had some rain but nothing that was intense. Having said that always have a poncho whenever you walk that goes without saying in my book. When it comes to weather I always quote the great John Lennon, "You know, you know, you never know, you know?"Has anyone traveled the northern route in October? I've seen averages, but am interested in boots on the ground opinion regarding clothing to pack.
I had walked last year, during the October and November months. The weather was so crispy cool and clear until I entered Galicia. Every day, I had rain, storm, hail, fog, etc. So much so, I switched to Camino Inglés, and it was much more dry there.Has anyone traveled the northern route in October? I've seen averages, but am interested in boots on the ground opinion regarding clothing to pack.
Thank you in advance.

Wet & muddy.Has anyone traveled the northern route in October? I've seen averages, but am interested in boots on the ground opinion regarding clothing to pack.
Thank you in advance.
I walked Frances in September/October and had the best weather on any of my Caminos. However, my family came out to SDC to meet me for a week's break for the last week in October following my arrival. From the moment they arrived in SDC it rained for a week. That said I have been soaked in April, June and July so pack waterproof gear but it is usually pretty warm.Has anyone traveled the northern route in October?

Thank you! I'm from Michigan, USA, so I'm used to a bit of cool (60 F is shorts weather), do you think a 50 F sleeping sack is sufficient in hostels?I walked it in October to early November.

That is what I used and it was fine. It was really cold some nights because heating costs are going through the roof (especially now) in Spain.Thank you! I'm from Michigan, USA, so I'm used to a bit of cool (60 F is shorts weather), do you think a 50 F sleeping sack is sufficient in hostels?
