Hi friends,
I'm planning my first camino and have about 2 weeks, coming from the US. I'm a 60 yrs old lady, reasonably fit and used to walking and hiking, and I speak Spanish fluently. I have been looking at my options and thinking about the last section of the Norte, starting from about Navia. What attracts me about this route is the scenery and that I would experience both a camino with fewer travelers and the last busier section where it merges with the Frances. I think I would probably go in September or October and I wonder how the weather would be then, and I wouldn't want to be absolutely alone on the trail, either. I do want the social experience of sharing this with others. Has anyone done this section, or has reccommendations for me? TIA
