- Time of past OR future Camino
- Camino Primitivo
Hi everyone,
I am walking the Primitivo in September 2022. This will be my first Camino (I'm 40 years old with average athletic ability). Due to family and work responsibilities back home, I need to try to stick to a walking schedule (of course I will adapt if necessary, I just can't afford to add 2 extra days).
I wanted to share my plan below — It’s currently 12 walking stages plus 2 rest days (Oviedo and Lugo). I'd welcome your input as I want to make sure I'm not getting in over my head. Are these sensible stages, or would you recommend dividing one of the stages up?
A couple notes:
1) During the first half, I really wanted to experience the albergue in Bodenaya, which explains why I set the early stages that way. I also plan to take the Hospitales route if the weather allows
2) Since September is a fairly busy month, from an accommodation standpoint during the last 100 km, I was trying to avoid the Camino rances traffic in Melide.
Thanks for your help!
Mike
