Via de La Plata in reverse

[Robert Gomez]

Has anyone walked the Via de La Plata in reverse? I.e. starting in Santiago. Hoping to walk from Santiago to Gibraltar after finishing the Camino del Norte

You might want to try that in Autumn or Winter.

Can easily be done. Just be mindful of the season. Summer temperatures will be blisteringly hot, while from late November onwards frost is likely

Whilst not doing it "reverse" in the technical sense, as I will be walking towards Compostela but North to South, as I will be going to Santiago via Fátima, I'm more or less doing so this year -- on a portion of the Plata anyway.

I am very glad that I can re-start this one southwards from the Sahagún whereabouts in April rather than May !! (heat-wise in particular)

I will be walking as a volunteer hosptialaria on the Camino Argones, Sanguesa to Canfranc in reverse.
I am a bit apprehensive about finding my way along the Camino trail with the signs pointing the other way...
