Hey everyone,
I live in Valencia, Spain, so I'm already in Spain. The official state of alarm ends on May 9th, and my plan is to (hopefully, assuming travel restrictions ease internally) head up and do 7-10 days of one of these two hikes. I don't expect albergue's to be open yet, so I'll likely AirBNB or hotel if possible.
I need to train for a hike in July in Italy (assuming I can travel to Italy by then), so I'm leaning towards the primitivo since it has a lot of elevation to practice on. But I'm worried it might be a bit wet in May there.
Any thoughts on the Norte vs Primitivo in May in terms of enjoyment (weather, food, etc.), and difficulty (my impression is the primitivo is more difficult, but I don't mind the Norte as long as it's provides some elevation challenge once and a while).
Any thoughts? Thanks!
