I walked from SJP to Santiago 10 years ago (started May 7, arrived in Santiago on June 8). Back then finding a bedroom in the municipal and parrish shelter was difficult only in the big cites and in the last Galizian towns. I'm reading in these threads that the Camino Frances has become a mess because of the huge crowds, and since I still do want to try my chance again, I wonder which months are the best... September, October, perhaps? Would it be slightly less traveled but still bad? Should I try a different option (other camino)?
