Pamplona start November 2018

[Carmsolo]

I am walking el Camino next week November 6, 2018 starting in Pamplona. I am worried that there won’t be many pilgrims walking at this time? Can anyone please tell me what to expect walking November into December? Thank you.

We start from Roncevalles on Sunday and will be in Pamplona Monday night, so you won't be alone.

Last year there were 245 compostelas per day in November and 93 per day in December. It is definitely down from 2,000 per day in August!!

There'll be plenty, everywhere you look on the path you will see people behind and ahead!!

Thank you all for easing my anxiety! I’m travelling solo and feel much better.
Buen Camino

I would recommend staying in albergues. I've been staying in cr's and pensioners and have felt isolated. Good for me at first tho. For me there there have been times on the Pamplona to logrono stretch where no pilgrims in sight. Always appeared when needed tho .buen Camino.

That must make the lines at the Pilgrims office nice and short!
