    Albergue available in October

    Hi walkers! So much divergent info about open albergues in the Camino Norte from October on.

    first camino

    hello everyone, thanks to all past pilgrims sharing their experiences and advice! And thanks to other newcomers asking questions I might have forgotten to ask. Now I know more about boots, blisters, socks, sleeping bags and the strong opinions about those worldly matters than I could hope for...
