- Next: Camino Sanabrés (May 2024)
I am planning a camino of about 1750 kms (Paray le Monial - Le Puy en Velay - SJPP - Santiago) starting the beginning of May. I have been trying to estimate how long it will take. If I calculate with an average of 22 kms a day (I will walk a bit more most of the days, but I will have restdays too), I seem to arrive exactly on July 25th in Santiago.
Of course it is impossible to predict the exact day of arrival, but how much effort should I take to avoid arriving on the 25th? Do the celebrations take days, or is it just the 25th? I mean, will it be a lot less crowded if I would for example arrive on the 22nd or the 28th? Or will there be a bubble anyhow around the 25th?
