Time of past OR future Camino
France's, Primitivo, Le Puy
I will be starting SJPP on 16 Apr with a stop at Orrison. That’ll put me in Zubiri Holy Thursday, Pamplona Good Friday, Puenta La Reina on Easter Saturday and Estella on Easter Sunday. Knowing the Spanish reverence/adherence to religious holidays, will I have a problem with albergue closings and bars, cafés and Mercado’s being open
Mick Beede 10th Camino
 
€2,-/day will present your project to thousands of visitors each day. All interested in the Camino de Santiago.
Not closures for lodging but I’d book ahead over the holiday weekend. Markets and some cafes will close. It’s a huge walking time for Spanish, then it quiets down.
 
Get a spanish phone number with Airalo. eSim, so no physical SIM card. Easy to use app to add more funds if needed.
Transport luggage-passengers.
From airports to SJPP
Luggage from SJPP to Roncevalles
Same I will arrive in Pamplona 17th and start walking the next day. Hope to meet you Mick 10 Camino a wealth of knowledge this is my first
 
I'll be a little further down the CF during Semana Santa. I start walking April 11 -- how far in advance should I book? I'm thinking I'll book for Thursday through Sunday???
 
I'm excited to be on the Camino for Semana Santa and Easter this year. I will start in SJPP on April 4th. I'm also glad I researched Semana Santa before seeing it without knowing what it was. I don't think they do that where I live.

Especially on Easter Sunday.
 
My wife and I always shop on Saturday to carry food on Sundays. Most of the time we could not buy food on Sundays. There may be some Bars open.
 
We were in Burgos for Easter Sunday in 2017. Leading up to and after we had no problems with accommodation; we didn't book ahead. Will be starting from Leon this year on 15 April, finishing on 25 April (wherever we end up!) As always, the Camino will provide.
 
3rd Edition. More content, training & pack guides avoid common mistakes, bed bugs etc
Hi I’m hoping to start from Leon this year in June. It will be my first Camino. Any tips?
