I’ve emailed both albergues a while back inquiring about booking for mid-April 2025. They both indicated that they’d take reservations in Nov/Dec. Outside of checking every day, do folks have a general sense of when they typically open for reservations? We are a group of 3 and we want to make sure we’ve got a place to sleep at this stop before buying tickets & traveling 20hrs to get to SJPP.

Thanks in advance!

Mid_December; sometimes even early January
I would respectfully suggest not to waste your time "now" but start monitoring say after Dec 7h (the day that lives in infamy) just to be sure

Good Luck and Buen Camino

I would guess that both establishments will do what they’ve said and will open for business around about now. If you can’t spare 5 minutes for an internet check every day try checking every second day or even once a week.

Or, get radical and start planning on a start from Pamplona

2 years ago we booked on Dec 15 for Borda which was our preferred stop - highly recommended!
We were glad we booked our flight after confirming the booking, turned out Borda was closed due to a family event on the day we had planned to start, and we were able to adjust for the next day.

They (Orrison) are closed now and will not answer until close to opening in April. About Borda; I know nothing.

Orisson no longer takes reservations by email. They have online booking on their website. Borda can also be booked on their own site.

Both Borda & Orisson have online booking. All 2025 dates are blocked off. The email I got from both places said they’d release dates for online booking in Nov/Dec.

Thank you to everyone who offered kind suggestions & helpful advice.

Thank you for your insight. I’ve not taken any vacation in almost 2 years and I’m saving it up to walk. I’ve got just enough days to do this route and not a day to spare. I’ll wait to book the bed before booking my flight.

Thanks your kindness.
