    Camino Primitivo

    Thanks Tincatinker. I will definitely check out Gronze. I'm wondering would there be some private Albergues or small hotels open in the larger towns . I will also get the primitivo guide on this site and perhaps it will have closing dates for Albergues. Hadn't considered the snow aspect of...
