About weather on the Chemin de Saint-Gilles

The Chemin de Saint-Gilles (Chemin de Régordane / GR 700) runs from the cooler volcanic uplands around Le Puy‑en‑Velay to the warmer Mediterranean plain near Saint‑Gilles, producing notable shifts in temperature, wind, and sun exposure. May, September, and October commonly bring moderate temperatures, longer daylight, and fewer heat extremes along the route. Early spring tends to be more unsettled and cool on the uplands, high summer is markedly hot and exposed in southern stretches, and late autumn into winter brings shorter days with more frequent rain, occasional snow or ice, and reduced services.

• Spring: Variable conditions from lingering cold to warming days; frequent rain and occasional light snow early, increasing sunshine and milder afternoons later.
• Summer: Warm to very hot, especially in southern sections, with strong sun, long exposed stretches, and sporadic heavy showers or storms.
• Autumn: Early season often steadier and clear; later weeks trend cooler with mixed skies, sporadic heavy downpours, and gradually increasing rainfall.
• Winter: Short days and frequent precipitation, including rain, freezing rain, and occasional snow or ice; temperatures swing between milder spells and sharp cold.
