What to wear:

 

  • If you're planning to walk the Camino de Santiago, choosing the right pair of shoes is crucial for a comfortable and safe journey. As stated, it is very important to wear shoes during the entire journey. If you decide to buy new shoes, do well in advance of the trip and break them in before starting the Camino. This will help prevent blisters and other foot injuries that can make your journey uncomfortable. It is also important to choose shoes that are durable and provide good support. So, invest in a good pair of shoes and enjoy your Camino de Santiago journey without any discomfort or foot injuries. Waterproof shoes are good if those do not get wet on the inside. It is recommended to bring 2 pairs of shoes.

 

  • Walking the Camino requires a lot of physical endurance, and having the right pair of shoes is crucial to prevent injuries and blisters. An Outdoor Sports Store can guide you through the process of selecting the best shoes for your Camino adventure.

 

  • Don't underestimate the role of socks in your daily comfort. A good pair of socks is just as important as the shoes you wear. And when it comes to the best material for socks, wool is a top choice. Not only is it warm and cozy, but it also wicks away moisture and prevents odors. That's why we highly recommend investing in a high-quality pair of wool socks.

 

  • Bring a hat that provides excellent UV protection while also keeping you cool and comfortable in the heat. Don't let the sun damage your skin.

 

  • For cooler months, a warm and lightweight down jacket is a great choice. It can be easily compressed to save space in your luggage and will keep you cozy during chilly mornings and nights. Another alternative is a fleece jacket. It provides warmth without the bulk and can be worn as a mid or outer layer depending on the weather.

 

  • In warmer months, a lightweight and breathable sweater made of merino wool or synthetic materials is perfect. It will keep you comfortable during cooler mornings and evenings and can be easily packed away when the temperature rises. Look for sweaters with moisture-wicking properties to keep you dry and comfortable during long walks.
