Last year I spent the night on a bench in pamplona with 5 others who couldn't get accommodation anywhere between Zunbriri and Pamplona. Please nobody say “ but didn’t you …..”. Yes we did, before you ask.
Absolutely loved your story. I walked it earlier this year and huffed and puffed my way to Roncesvelles on the first day. Loved it but took me 10 1/2 hours. Might try and find a ten year old to walk with next time 😉
I think your idea of staying in the smaller places, you say that in one of your YouTube videos, sounds a good idea. I hate the idea of having to race for a bed and booking, apart from the odd time, leaves less flexibility I would think?
