This summer I'll have my first experience on the Camino Francés. Coming from the Via de la Plata, I'll join in Astorga and then have about five walking days left before I have to fly home. I am very curious about the Francés, but also a bit worried about the crowds. I would like to stay away from the waves as much as possible, but since I don't have a guidebook I don't know what the usual stages are. I can imagine the bigger towns and cities (Astorga for example...), but how do I find the other places to avoid spending the night? (For example, should I choose Rabanal del Camino or Foncebadón after Astorga?)
