Camino del Norte (2020)
I’m planning my first Camino, the Norte, aiming to start as early as possible in March 2020. I’m looking for advice on how easy it is to get accommodation on the spot at this early time of year. Any other advice always welcome.

My only real kit dilemma is cagoule or poncho. I usually walk with a cagoule but can see pros and cons. Any views given route and season?
 
The one from Galicia (the round) and the one from Castilla & Leon. Individually numbered and made by the same people that make the ones you see on your walk.
A really good quality poncho with Velcro tabs as well as a zip that covers your pack is my choice Easy on off and the choice of some airflow and keeps all of your pack dry.
 
Technical backpack for day trips with backpack cover and internal compartment for the hydration bladder. Ideal daypack for excursions where we need a medium capacity backpack. The back with Air Flow System creates large air channels that will keep our back as cool as possible.
