Time of past OR future Camino
June: Camino Frances from Pamplona
My wife and I are planning to walk the Camino from Lisbon to SDC in the winter. Can pilgrims who have walked the Camino in these months tell me about three things:

The availability of municipal or parish albergues

The availability of slightly upper scale (non bunk bed albergues)

The availability of low cost hotels

And finally the temperatures encountered in January, February and March.

Thank you for any info.

Warmly,


Barr
