The Gronze website gives details for albergues and usually says if a place is open all year. It may not be accurate though. Hospitaleros may well know what the options are further west and it is worth asking their advice. There is also a dedicated website available from November which lists places known to be open during winter: http://www.aprinca.com/alberguesinvierno/
