    230.000 pilgrims expected this year

    Walked in June and July, none of the above, same for the people I met and walked with. We must've been the luckiest people on the Camino ;) Groups though - there was a group of 100+ kids with teachers who started around Triacastela, overtaking them felt like being in a rush hour subway! All good...

    I see what you mean. I was actually saying that Camino Frances is too not crowded.

    Just wanted to say that the only time I didn't find a bed between Saint Jean and Finistere was in Olveiroa (and I arrived around 18:30). There was one in the next village though. Are "bed races" created out of nothing?

    Starting the camino June 14th from SJPP

    No, that would''ve been one bus too many )) ! My train arrives in Pamplona about an hour before the last bus leaves for SJPP. In case I miss it - taxi sounds like a plan!

    Starting the camino June 14th from SJPP

    Arrving in Pamplona on the 14th as well, and then enjoying a (supposedly ;) ) beautiful 2 hour bus ride to SJPP!

    230.000 pilgrims expected this year

    Then would it be advisable/necessary/possible to make a reservation at Roncesvalles albergue? Im sure all 230000 won't show up in one day, but still... Suddenly 180 beds are not looking like a sure thing

    Socks nightmare, please help!

    Thank you for your advice and recommendations! I must admit, I am as confused as before though, as it looks like 1, 2 or 3 layers seem to work great :) As many of you have mentioned, the only way to find out is to try, so I will do few 25+ km trips in the next few days to see how my feet will react!

    Socks nightmare, please help!

    I read a lot about 1000 Mile socks, but I am afraid in this case I will be stuck with two layers without having the option of removing one. Plus much longer drying time, as some people have mentioned before. I was curious about those, are you talking about the ones with 5-toe design?
