What is the percentage of asfalt walking on the Primitivo?
is it necessary to carry a sleeping bag? do all albergos supply you with covers like on the Camino Francaise?
 
Get a spanish phone number with Airalo. eSim, so no physical SIM card. Easy to use app to add more funds if needed.
Re: asfalt and accomodations

Hi zammy,
At a rough estimate probably 20% asphalt to 80% track. It will depend on the time of year that you are going. If there has been a lot of rain the tracks (especially around Salas / Tineo) can get very muddy and most pilgrims walk on the road.

Having just come back from walking the Camino Ingles, maybe others can comment on the provision of blankets in the albergues in Galicia. The cost this year is €5 with disposable sheet and pillow slip provided BUT NO BLANKETS! We took light sleeping bags so were O.K. It would have been chilly without them!

Blessings
