Spain is a sunny country with around 3,000 hours of sunshine every year. The temperatures are mild, though there are still differences depending on the seasons and areas of the country. The mildest temperatures are in spring and autumn, allowing you to enjoy the outdoors practically the whole day long. April, May and June are the best months for visiting Spain as the sun is almost always out and every day there are more hours of sunshine for enjoying the trail. Maximum temperatures are reached during the months of July and August, which are hot and dry throughout the whole country, which is why our Camino trips don't tend to run during these hot months! The temperatures start to drop in September and October, and it is colder first thing in the morning and late afternoon.
