Climate chart - Avila
The climate of Avila is slightly continental, with moderately cold winters and hot, sunny summers, though with cool nights.
The city is located in the Autonomous Community of Castile and León, at 85 km (50 mi) north-west of Madrid. It is crossed by the Adaja River, a tributary of the Duero. Located at more than 1,100 meters (3,600 feet) of altitude, it is the highest provincial capital in Spain. Not surprisingly, frosts are frequent in winter, while at night, it can get cold even in summer.

The average temperature of the coldest month (January) is of 3.6 °C (38.5 °F), that of the warmest month (July) is of 21.2 °C (70.1 °F).

Precipitation amounts to 415 millimeters (16.3 inches) per year: it is therefore quite scarce. In particular, the winter is quite dry.

Avila

The winter, from December to February, is quite cold. At night, the temperature often drops below freezing, even though the temperature range is often considerable, so during the day the temperature can become mild.
However, there may sometimes be very cold periods.
On the coldest nights of the year, the temperature generally drops to -8/-9 °C (16/18 °F). The coldest record is -16 °C (3 °F) and dates back to January 1985. From 2000 to 2020, the lowest temperature was -13 °C (8.5 °F), recorded in March 2005.
Snowfalls in Ávila are quite frequent, and can sometimes be quite abundant. For example, in January 2018, 30 to 40 cm (12 to 16 inches) of snow fell, while in January 2021, the snow thickness reached 20 cm (8 in). Sometimes it can snow even in April.

The Summer, from June to August, is warm during the day, while nights are cool. The sun often shines, although there can occasionally be thunderstorms. At night, the temperature can drop below 10 °C (50 °F) even in July and August.
Sometimes, there may be very hot periods, in which the temperature can reach or exceed 35 °C (95 °F). The highest record is 39 °C (102 °F), recorded in August 2021. However, it does not get as hot as in Madrid and in south-central Spain.

Best Time


The best time to visit Avila runs from June to September, since it is the warmest and sunniest period of the year. Sometimes it can be hot, while in other circumstances, nights can be cool or even cold, so it can be useful to bring a sweatshirt or sweater and a light jacket for the evening, and maybe gloves and a wool hat, which take up little space and can be useful on colder nights.
If you fear the heat, you can choose the periods from mid-May to mid-June and from mid-September to mid-October.
