Dothead:

You should have plenty of time to walk that distance. There Eroski site, as mentioned, and Gronze.com are very good sites for information on accommodation. The Cicerone guide book is also a good reference.

If you are not walking the Norte for a particular reason, you might want to consider the Primitivo. You could complete an entire Camino, end up in Santiago and get a Compostela.

The early Norte can be a challenging but beautiful walk along the Coast.

Ultreya,
Joe

Hi Dothead
Welcome to the forum

Do you intend to do this section of the Norte as the first stage to Santiago and return another time? This section is a very interesting and beautiful walk. Plenty to see and you'll have time to have a good look at the Guggenheim.

guides are always handy but the yellow arrows are easier to follow. Read through some of the earlier threads and you will also find answers to many questions you may not have even thought of. There should be quite a few others on the route at that time of year also, who you will probably have no trouble grouping with if you wish for walking company .
Accommodation - not sure how you're planning this first one but there are many alburgues dotted along the way - the yellow arrows will take you by most of them.
Naturally you'll find hostals and hotels about
As mentioned earlier- in websites and guidebooks.
Keep your pack light! Drink plenty of water!
Buen Camino to both of you
