About weather on the Camino Portugués Central

The Camino Portugués Central runs from Lisboa north to Santiago, with weather moderating from Portugal’s milder south to Galicia’s wetter Atlantic climate overall. April, May, and November frequently offer mild temperatures, manageable rain, and good daylight across most sections from Lisboa through the Minho into Galicia. Seasonal patterns vary: spring mixes bright spells and showers, summer brings heat especially south, autumn turns changeable, and winter is cooler, wetter, and quieter.

• Frequent showers and bright spells accompany mild to warm days; conditions grow wetter northward, with substantial rain around Porto and Santiago.
• Warm to hot, reaching mid-30s°C in the south; northern sections stay milder, with humidity, sporadic showers, and occasional heavier rainfall later.
• Transition season with sharp variability: late-summer heat peaking to 41°C, increasing showers north, frequent rain and cloud in Galicia, shortening daylight.
• Cool to cold with frequent rain; northern areas turn wetter, sometimes near freezing, short days, muddy farm lanes, and periodic heavy downpours.
