  I find that statement a little worrying. You are planning to walk some 750km and you've no slack in your timetable. Or is that two days from Biarritz the slack that you have?

  I think the Primitivo is an excellent choice for all the reasons P2K said. I would most strongly recommend the Hostal A Pocina de Muniz in Ferreira. Probably the best place I have stayed in in all my caminos. 20 euros for bunk beds 60 if you want...

  That is sad. I always love it when I come across such artefacts. However, not so sure I loved the one on Camino Madrid between Cercedilal and Segovia. But I did love the small stretch near Valdepiélago (On the Olvidado?)
