We are walking the middle of the Camino Frances during the week between Palm Sunday and Easter. (13 April-20 April)
Does anyone know if albergues and restaurants will be opening? Thanks so much for your help.

Semana Santa is a very popular time for Spaniards to walk to Camino. There will be places to sleep and eat.

Yes, things will be humming! But still, don't count on a village grocery store being open when you want it.

I walked during Easter a few years ago stopping in Burgos to see the Easter celebrations, it was busy but I had no problem with accomodation and supplies on the way.

I’m guessing you’re walking between Sarria and Santiago(?). If so secure your accommodation in Santiago soon
