Considering primitivo (in one week) And I would appreciate any insights
I have two weeks free and am thinking to try the primativo.
My questions are:
1. Distance. I'm comfortable at 16-25 km, will it be possible to keep under the 25km and still find albergues? How was it finding albergues?
2. Height/difficulty/danger levels.
I'm going solo, and on parts of del norte at the beginning particularly I was a bit unnerved by the height and feeling of being on the edge, looking down especially as I had some storms. I made it, but Ive heard primativo is supposed to be more mountainous/rugged. Should I be ok height wise (eg I don't want to be on a dangerous cliff edge like situation) or are there many dangerous rugged parts that I should be very worried about?
For context I have walked Frances st. Jean to Santiago a good few years ago, and just walked Santiago - Finisterre , and have done del norte (irun - Santander). However, my fitness is not that great at the moment, and I've not had time to train, except for walking Camino finisterre recently.
I have looked into this myself but really would appreciate any personal insights thanks!
