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?
 
Very light, comfortable and compressible poncho. Specially designed for protection against water for any activity.

Our Atmospheric H30 poncho offers lightness and waterproofness. Easily compressible and made with our Waterproof fabric, its heat-sealed interior seams guarantee its waterproofness. Includes carrying bag.

€60,-
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

Hi, has anyone walked the Primitivo in mid-October? What was it like? Weather, tracks and accommodation? I plan to walk from Oviedo to Lugo only, then bus to Santiago after. Thanks for your input.
