Hello all fellow camino walkers. I have planned to start my trek on the 23rd of July and have a flight out of Santiago on the 23rd of August. I am leaving from St Jean Pied de Port. I would like to get to Finisterre too. I am in pretty good shape and generally a fast walker. Can anyone tell me how they found it in terms of time?
Secondly, I have dipped into quite a few guidebooks but none seem to mention how difficult it is to secure a bed in each town in July and August. Should I be assuming that I may have to take a hotel? I really really dont want to - for both budget and pilgrimage reasons! If there is no bed and I havent a tent, is is possible to sleep outside?
Any feedback appreciated!
Cheers,
Monica
