  I don't think that anyone can answer that for you. Are you a "completer"? Will you always feel like you missed something if you don't do that stretch? Your answer to those questions will tell you what to do.

  Almost ;) all of my physiological needs were met on the Camino, breathing, food, water, sleep, homeostasis, and excretion. And all of my safety needs. It's not a wilderness/survival hike!

  I tend to agree with you, I walked for 6 weeks on my own during the day (my choice) and socialised with fellow pilgrims in the evening. It allowed me into my inner thoughts (if that makes sense), I found that there were more questions appearing...
