Hi My name is Deborah, I'm new to the forum, I'm planning on hiking the Camino del norte in September starting on the 1st in Irun, how busy is the norte at that time of year, It it gard to find a bed in an aldergue at night, roughly how much are the albergue per night, I'm hoping to complete in 35 days, I'm travelling alone, I'd be very grateful for any advice or help from those who have walked the route recently, I'm planning to carry no more that 6kg. I understand there can be up to 5 days of rain in september in the North, I've done some of the French and Portuguese route previously, Would you recommend walking poles, And are they easily bought in Irun, as Ryan Air maje you check them.
Thanks in advance
Deborah
