I love the Spring with the green fields of grain and the colorful wildflowers. Plus the days get longer rather than shorter.

There are fewer people in October.

I started my Camino Frances on April 12 and arrived in Santiago on May 14. Shout out to everyone who started on the same day! I really loved the weather during my walk. Most days, it was around 20°C, though it occasionally reached 29°C in the afternoons, especially between 2 and 4 PM. I typically started walking around 7–8 AM, and I remember six days where it was as cold as -2°C when I left the albergues. I encountered rain on three days, one of which was particularly cold and heavy. My cloths and shoes were all wet, so they got heavier than usual and the wind was so strong, it kept pushing back. It was the hardest day but the kindness of the people walking with me really stood out. I heard so many, 'Are you cold?' on the way, and that made me feel warm inside.

June

30 days ? I'd say 15th June or so, as the only period in the good weather season when Sarria to Santiago is not insanely crowded is the first half of July.
