- Walking the Camino Frances in April 2020.
My husband and I are planning our first Camino and will arrive in SJPDP at the beginning of March. Yes, March! Work schedules and commitments being what they are, that's when it has to be.
I'm looking for a reality check in terms of snow/ice, especially crossing the Pyrenees. We live in Central NY and are used to a lot of snow and cold, but we don't walk miles and miles up/downhill in it. We definitely have the appropriate clothing but does anyone have thoughts on other specialty gear we might need for that time of year?
Also, my husband uses a CPAP machine at night, so we'll be looking for hotels,private homes that let out rooms, B&Bs, etc. If anyone has a good source for finding private accommodations, we'd certainly appreciate the assist.
To everyone - thanks for all of the great information that you so willingly share!
