Snow at A Gudiña this weekend

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
 
The focus is on reducing the risk of failure through being well prepared. 2nd ed.
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.
 
Technical backpack for day trips with backpack cover and internal compartment for the hydration bladder. Ideal daypack for excursions where we need a medium capacity backpack. The back with Air Flow System creates large air channels that will keep our back as cool as possible.

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...
 
...and snow at O Cebreiro as well!

Get a spanish phone number with Airalo. eSim, so no physical SIM card. Easy to use app to add more funds if needed.
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!
Stephen.

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.
