Hi Everyone - I have never walked any part of the Camino before and have made quite a last-minute plan to walk a small part of it beginning 11th of March. I have found a lot of the information online to be a little inconsistent so I thought I would come to the experts for some advice.
I plan to walk the Via de la Plata (or more if necessary) backwards ending at Sevilla. I would like to start Monday 11th of March and end Friday 15th (flexible). My questions are as follows:
1) Does anyone see nay issue with the above plan
2) As I understand it, routing when going backwards can be an issue due to signage, I have downloaded Wikiloc but the ap oly seems to show portions of routes, not the whole thing, which makes planning weird. Any tips for this?
3) Where should I start(ish) to make the above plan pheasible? That's approx 5 days walking ending at Sevilla from an accessible location.
4) Will I need to book accommodation in advance at this time of year or am I able to just turn up? 11-16 March
5) What can I expect in terms of weather (temperature) I would like to take as little as possible.
For context, I am 30, physically fit, and no stranger to hikes.
Thanks in advance everyone, I hope my questions don't make me look too much of a clown
