Hi Joe,
I just wanted to check what month you did the Camino north? Did you do Ribadeo to Santiago?
My father and I are planning to do this route together in June and I have a concern about finding enough options for accommodation along the route as it will be the first time we've both done the Camino.
Any advice you can offer would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks, Nysha

Hi Joe,Redstone:
I walk in the Spring so my experience will be different.
The last section of the Norte is the easiest, imo, and the numbers of Pilgrims were a few more than the Primitivo. Ribadeo as a starting point offers lots of options including a Parador. There are adequate accommodations to stay all along the way, with the exception of Miraz. There is only an Albergue and a bar, bring food to cook. There are additional options further up the road, check at Albergue or bar for information on them. The Albergue before (Baamonde) and after (Sabrado dos Monxes) (the monastery) are very large.
When I hit the Frances, I walked through Arzua and stayed in Salceda. Two Private Albergues and a crazy bar worth at least a stop. I liked the herbal Liqueur that was flowing freely. Then the next day I walked on through to Santiago. I only spent one night on the Frances and was not overwhelmed, July could be different.
Tom's suggestion to go back to Tapia de Casariego is a good one. It is only about 10 km's back from Ribadeo. The location is well worth the extra 10 km's. Tom is also right in saying this is where you leave the coast so Tapia will give you a taste of the Norte you missed.
Hope this helps,
Joe
Hi Joe,
Kirsty and I will be walking our first Camino in September this year (2015) and I am a bit worried about the lack of info on the Norte accom between Vilalba and Sobrado. Any thoughts or suggestions. Hotels ok
Thank you in advance
