[QUOTE="Kialoa3, post: 146455, member: 7942"] Hi Wayne, my wife and I have walked the CF twice in the Dec-Feb timeframe. We always found an albergue open in the major stage break cities and towns. Accommodation in smaller towns was much harder to find. We always had the hospitalero call ahead to confirm what was open, and that worked out fine. Be advised that even albergues that advertise as being open all year might not be, as people seem to take vacations without notice or close for a day or two around holidays. We walked into Santo Domingo on Christmas Eve, expecting the municipal albergue to be open (as advertised), but it wasn't. Fortunately a local young lady, seeing our predicament, made some phone calls, and eventually the door swung open. It is a great time of the year to walk. I would much rather walk in 30F than 90F weather. Speaking of weather you can find quite a variety at this time of year. Temps can range from 20F to 70F. We had several days this past Jan in Navarre where the temps were 60-70F. Snow is to be expected in the higher elevations, and rain/sleet is always a possibility. If the Camino path is drifted in the road is usually walkable. Obviously caution must be used when road walking in this kind of weather, but it is usually doable. It is possible that you might have to hole up for a day or two if a bad weather system overtakes you. It is all part of the journey. Enjoy and Buen Camino. John [/QUOTE]
