I walked the first week from SJPP last september. Let me tell ye...
It was tough to get a bed. In my group, 2 people quit around Logrono. A combination of factors... Loads of Spaniards, albergues closed....
We got word back from the front... Everything from sarria onwards is booked out...
Has anyone noticed this?
I am on the meseta part, and it's fiercely competitive, people getting up at 5am, to storm ahead of everyone else.
It's a bragfest when they reach the albergue, having done 2 stages in a day.
I am not talking about the cyclists, or people taking bus, or other variants.
