Weather on the Camino de Santiago

Climate conditions differ greatly on all the Caminos de Santiago, depending on season and area.  In general, the best weather for walking any of the Caminos de Santiago is from mid-April to late June and then from early September to mid October. March and November can fine too, just be prepared for colder temperatures and more rain. July and August are too hot for most people, especially on the Meseta section (Logroño to Astorga) of the Camino Frances. Rain can be expected at any time anywhere and Santiago is Spain’s wettest city, so be sure to come prepared!
