"most popular month" - it depends on where along the trail. May and September are the two most popular months for starting in SJPDP. July is probably the most popular month for arriving in Santiago; many people time their walks to arrive so they can be in Santiago to celebrate the Feast day on 25 July.
Hey!Is there anything you wish someone would've told you or anything you wish you would've known before walking the Camino for your first time?
So I'm taking the French Way. Are there different paths to take along the way to get to Santiago? If so, how do I go about choosing them and should I have them decided before leaving for my trip? Should I get a Map and familiarize myself with the route/villages along the way, before leaving? Does anybody know of any good websites or books that I should read to prepare myself and to explain everything that I need to know, before leaving for my trip?
Also, I've read all over that July is the most popular month for the Camino de Santiago but people tell me that May actually is. Does anybody know which one is actually correct? (specifically for the Camino Frances)
Any other tips are greatly appreciated!
Thanks!

July and August are too hot for many so may is usually more popular, I have done both times and can tell you this is usual. There are different routes on the way, you should decide as you get to them as you may end up wanting to travel with friends you have made, and they may wish to travel a different route than one you may have planned. A certain amount of planning is advisable, though you should let the Camino take you as it will, it is sure to surprise you, and hopefully in a very pleasant way, enjoy.Is there anything you wish someone would've told you or anything you wish you would've known before walking the Camino for your first time?
