Hi all. Just reached Bilbao after starting from Irun. Would say 10-15 pilgrims that have formed a ‘loose group’. Varied nationalities, USA, Czech Republic, UK, Italy, France Germany and Spain. No problems with a accommodation, food etc. Though sure many places closed but enough open.

How are prices in albergues right now?
 
€2,-/day will present your project to thousands of visitors each day. All interested in the Camino de Santiago.
Pretty much like any other year I think. 15-20 euro
That's quite a bit more than I paid for albergues on the Norte in 2018. The most that I paid for an albergue bed was 12€. Lots of places were between 5€ and 10€.
 
The municipal and association Albergues are mostly closed in Basque country this year that takes out the lower priced end of pilgrim accommodation.

I thought I had this all figured out, but I have ended up with 2 train tickets from San Sebastian (I don't even know if it's the airport or the town) to Irun, instead of ONE that goes all the way...
