Okay... Finally getting to the final stages of planning for my first Camino 😎🌞
However, I wonder a little about the weather, so hoping someone has some experience to share. I would prefer some 15-20C at night and 20-25C at Day. Preferebly mostly dry. Would you guys lean more towards may/June or end August/september?
Thanks 😊
 
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.

If you plan the CF, August / September will, almost certainly, be hotter. And for what refers to May / June, temperatures could be around what you have indicated (or a little hotter).

If you plan to take a camino in the north, probably August / September will be around what you indicated.
 
The 2024 Camino guides will be coming out little by little. Here is a collection of the ones that are out so far.
I’m a harvest time advocate.

So I vote August/September.

Temps during day may be hotter than you wish.

Buen camino.
Thanks for your input, nycwalking! I have a feeling that the later season will have a more "crisp" air, than the presummer... But not sure if that applies to the region on Northern Spain 🤣 Also, I guess the later you go in September, the cooler it gets, at least on average...

Thanks @Lirsy I am planning for the CF. :)

Late September and into October would be closer to your desired temperature range.
 
...and ship it to Santiago for storage. You pick it up once in Santiago. Service offered by Casa Ivar (we use DHL for transportation).
I walked in August/September. Only a few days with light rain, mostly sunny and temps. generally 25-28 during the day; cool, crisp mornings and cool evenings. Perfect for me.

Ha' en god tur 🙂
