Hello forum members.
Just looking for a bit of help and advice. Has anybody walked the Norte at the end of October/beginning of November? I have scope to walk 10 days and am looking for advice as regards a starting and finishing point. I fly into Santander and my initial idea is to take a bus to San Sebastian and begin there. I fly home from Madrid so I will need to catch a bus or train from my finishing point to there. Also, I know difficult to predict but what kind of weather conditions could I expect in this part of Spain this time of year? Would the Norte be quiet at this time?
Regards,
Gerard.
 
Ideal sleeping bag liner whether we want to add a thermal plus to our bag, or if we want to use it alone to sleep in shelters or hostels. Thanks to its mummy shape, it adapts perfectly to our body.

There were 425 arrivals on the Camino del Norte last November (a mix of October and November starts). I think I would call that quiet compared to 4,672 In August.

Check any weather site almanac for October and November weather. It will be exactly the same this year, but on different days. ;)

I use Alltrails a lot here in the US, in Iceland, on the Via Podiensis and a bit on the CF. Will it be useful on the Norte? For example, people here say the "warm up" from Biarritz to Irun (or...
