I did the first bit in September 2011 and it was glorious. I have lived here for 3 years and only can tell you that September is normally very fine weather, in October things begin to change and it can be wonderful one day and horrible the next, in November you could be asking for problems last years was great the year before nasty; or was it the other way around for the life of me I don't remember :?
Very light, comfortable and compressible poncho. Specially designed for protection against water for any activity.
Our Atmospheric H30 poncho offers lightness and waterproofness. Easily compressible and made with our Waterproof fabric, its heat-sealed interior seams guarantee its waterproofness. Includes carrying bag.
The first edition came out in 2003 and has become the go-to-guide for many pilgrims over the years. It is shipping with a Pilgrim Passport (Credential) from the cathedral in Santiago de Compostela.

September, October and November are wonderful months to walk and the days are usually golden. However you must always be prepared for varied weather. Nights can be chilly or cold and freezing rain or even snow might occur by November.
Many albergues start to close mid October, but the hospitaleros usually know who is open on the next stage. Since the crowds of summer are past you will find the welcome at those albergues which are open to be most sincere. Most albergues will either be heated or have blankets, but not all. Finding a bunk is never a problem since the rush of summer has past.
