In August, the regions along the Camino Mozárabe from Málaga experience high temperatures and predominantly sunny weather. Andalusia, in particular, faces intense heat, with temperatures often climbing above 35°C and reaching peaks of 45°C, making it the hottest part of the journey. Extremadura follows suit, also offering consistently warm and sunny days, although occasional rain showers bring brief relief. Despite a few days of cloud coverage and minor rainfall, most of the month sees clear skies. Nights offer slightly cooler temperatures, generally ranging from 17°C to 28°C, contributing to a generally arid and sun-drenched climate.

The beginning of the month includes a mix of sunny and partly cloudy days in Málaga, with no rain and highs ranging from 28°C to 38°C. As you move inland through towns like Almogía and Villanueva de la Concepción, the pattern continues with temperatures frequently reaching above 35°C. While days remain mostly dry, slight rain in Doña Mencía and Baena occasionally disrupts the endless sun.

Castuera and Don Benito offer frequent sunny days, interspersed with rare instances of cloudy weather and minor showers providing slight cooldown.

As the route advances through Campanario and Torrefresneda towards Mérida, the presence of sporadic rain becomes more marked, particularly with a significant day of rain at Torrefresneda. Nevertheless, the dominant sunny climate of Extremadura ensures these disturbances are transient. Mérida enjoys significant sunshine, maintaining temperatures in the high 30s and occasionally brushing past 40°C, solidifying the region’s warm and dry summer. Nights range from 19°C to 25°C, ensuring a consistent warm backdrop for travelers during the month.
