Primitivo (October 2016)
My wife and I are planning to hike the Primitivo in late October of 2016. We area little worried that hostels will be closed. Does anyone have any guidance? Alternatively, is there a way to find reach out to people directly and find housing? (homestays or B&B kind of arrangements)

Also, any guidance on gear, given the temperature? I have done a lot of backpacking and am well equipped for a nasty winter. We are planning to bring sleeping bags and similar colder weather gear. Is that overkill?

Thanks!
 
Technical backpack for day trips with backpack cover and internal compartment for the hydration bladder. Ideal daypack for excursions where we need a medium capacity backpack. The back with Air Flow System creates large air channels that will keep our back as cool as possible.

€83,-
Gronze lists not only the albergues but also some private accommodation too.
 
The one from Galicia (the round) and the one from Castilla & Leon. Individually numbered and made by the same people that make the ones you see on your walk.
