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...
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?
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!
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
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!
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?
