Hi Catherine. Accommodation became more competitive after Sarria. We found somewhere every night but had to be flexible in choosing pensions to ensure we had a bed. Sometimes additional accommodation is opened up once the main centres are full.
We'd like to look at the North next time but I...
On our laSt summer Frances, we carried a sleeping mat because of concerns about not getting accommodation enroute but never used it at all. When albergues werefull we found pensions. IMHO leave it at home.

Hi everyone. Our third camino is coming up mid July and we'd like to finish the Frances by walking to Muxia then on to A Coruna. Any recommendations on stages from Muxia would be appreciated.
