Snow at A Gudiña this weekend

ivar · Apr 9, 2012

On our way to easter vacation, I drove by A Gudiña (Via de la Plata) and saw snow (about 3-4cm). Not much, but still.... grey skies and 3c.

So, be prepared for any type of weather.

Buen Camino!
Ivar

Thank you for that, Ivar!

I'm going to Malaga next Monday: Will stay in the south a couple of days before going to Salamanca and start walking from there at the end of next week! :wink: Hopefully without snow: I am sitting in a heap of snow up here in Arctic Norway right now! :lol:

Crazy! It was something like 28 when I was there just a couple of weeks ago.

I'd better see if Ryanair accept ice-picks in cabin baggage
A Gudina is my scheduled stop for 16th May so the snow's got time to go before then!
Thanks Ivar - and for all you do for this forum.
Buen camino. Vaya con Dios ....

There's a snow alert and -1°C temperature for the Pamplona area tomorrow night at wunderground.com. :shock:
Must be much colder in the Pyrenees and Roncesvalles...

I don't think there's snow there at the moment, but there's a LOT of snow still to be seen on the mountain tops.
Weather conditions at the moment are steady light rain showers, and occasional torrential downpours (in Santiago, where I type this in a Cyber shop, having regretfully had to abandon my VdlP attempt due to severe blistering and the atrocious weather).
Buen camino!

So sorry Stephen, I know how much you were looking forward to this camino. The weather is 'out of normal' you have been unlucky, there will have been a reason. I look forward to hearing of your next one.

One reason for me choosing the VDLP is to avoid the constant stress of the bed race on the busier routes. Alas I haven’t escaped it. Literally every bed (that I’m able to contact) is full from...

Be careful when you organise a transfer from the Arca de Caparra (Via’s emblem) to one of the three hotels in Jarilla. The guide books we are using state that you will be picked up at ARCA DE...
