Climate in Asturias: The Asturian climate is pure Atlantic: it rains more than almost any other Spanish region, and fog is a regular mountain companion. Summer months (June to September) offer the best conditions, with mild temperatures at altitude and less precipitation, though evening storms are frequent and require early starts. May and October are transition months: weather can be good, but you might also encounter summit snow or epic downpours. Winter is harsh, with abundant snow in the Picos closing many trails. Humidity is constant, so forget Mediterranean dry heat: here you run with coolness and fog, which has its mystical charm.

Tips for running in Asturias in march
Pollen allergies start in March: if you are sensitive, carry antihistamine and consider a buff to cover nose and mouth.
Days are longer but mornings still cool: a thin thermal base layer under your race shirt can make the difference.
Pine processionary caterpillars are active in March: avoid touching nests and keep distance from caterpillars on the trail.
