Camino del Norte 2019
I last walked the Camino in 2019 Del Norte. I will walk from Lisbon but am concerned about the weather, accommodations and covid on route. Have there been any issues?
 
Down bag (90/10 duvet) of 700 fills with 180 g (6.34 ounces) of filling. Mummy-shaped structure, ideal when you are looking for lightness with great heating performance.

€149,-
When are you going? COVID hasn’t been an issue.
I disagree. I caught Covid in May on the Camino Portuguese, as did several other people that I knew and met along the way.

I do think that there was a spike at the time because many pilgrims had also been in Fátima for the anniversary with 100s of thousands of people.
 
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,-

When are you going? COVID hasn’t been an issue.
The WHO dashboard indicates there have been over 19,000 new confirmed cases in Portugal in the last seven days. I think caution is still required, including being prepared to wear a mask and maintain social distancing, practice good hand hygiene, etc.

I stayed in several albergues this year on the CP, and many were more crowded than I expected, with less 'thinning out' than I had anticipated. Others were nearly empty, but these appeared to be places where one couldn't book ahead. Where I did look for private rooms, I was always able to find something, but at a price premium.
