That is just about the busiest time! June departures arrive in Santiago in July; mid-July of last year saw 1,100 to 1,500 compostelas issued each day.

I walked last year on start of July and it was fantastic! Of course a lot of people, but you can be also alone if you want and no problem with sleeping in albergue..

We walked starting SJPP May 28 - so mostly in June. If that is the definition of crowded then the other months must be practically solitary. We walked alone whenever we wanted (not inlcuding the last 100m of course), but also could walk with people if we wished. I was actually surprised how few folks were on the Way most of the time.

As we got closer to Santiago we did try to stay off of the Brierly cities however - so maybe that helped.
