Camino del Norte - camping

Hello!
We are planning to take the northern route from the third week in July with 14 days to walk to Santiago. Where should we start our journey?
We are a group of students with limited funds, so we plan to cook by ourselves and carry our own tents. How is camping on the Northern Route? I've heard that, outside of the cities, you can pitch your tent right beside the albergue and for a smaller fee use the facilities there.
We are all first - timers so we could really use all of the help and advice that we could get!
Thanks for all of your help!
Buen camino!
 
Get a spanish phone number with Airalo. eSim, so no physical SIM card. Easy to use app to add more funds if needed.
Hi Slowik,

I plan on doing the camping the Camino Del Norte in a few months. Did you end up going? I'd love to hear about how the camping went if you did.

Thanks!
