Not really. If you walked during this time last year (2017) it was unseasonable hot and dry. If you walked during this time this year (2018), it was unseasonably cold and wet. I'm sure you can easily look up (google) average temperatures for your particular time period of travel and location but they are just averages. People generally deal with very hot weather by leaving very early each morning...4 or 5 am which insures they will complete their 20-25 Kms before noon. If it's going to be hot & you don't do well in heat, the importance of an early start each day, carrying extra water, carrying a very light pack or sending it ahead each day, wearing a wide brim hat, lightweight (non-cotton) clothing, sunscreen, and taking more breaks will help you through each day. Good luck, I'm sure you'll love it.
 
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.
