Hello,
I would be grateful for any input on the feasibility of doing the Camino Francés in winter - early December to early January.
I have checked the winter temperature averages for various cities from Roncesvalles to Santiago and that is not a problem. Average snowfall is negligible in the same areas. But it seems that the weather could be a problem if one were to start in SJPDP, no?...given the mountain crossing...
Aside from the weather are there any other potential pitfalls particular to doing the camino in winter?
Any information would be appreciated!
Mil gracias.
