October calendar???

[Paulo Arantes]

I know October is not a month with many pilgrims but will we have a calendar for checking in on this section of the forum?

You will be surprised at how many pilgrims walk in October! Yes, we will have a thread for it. We usually start one about 5 or 6 months in advance.

Probably not set up yet.. but a tiny fraction of peregrinos use the calendar on this site.
If you're talking about the frances, it will still be quite busy in October. I walked it the October after restrictions lifted and it still had goid crowds, particularly at the beginning (roncevalles to Pamplona) and end (after sarria)

@C clearly is the one who has been creating the calendar threads, and as she said above, it's usually 5 - 6 months out.
The purpose of these threads is so that forum members can connect with others who are starting around the same time. It's definitely not representative of all who will be in the Camino that month! But you can observe patterns that correspond with which months are the busiest or slowest overall

Of course! And connecting with other forum members is my reason for using it.

Was just noting October isn't that quiet on the cf for example , even if we only have 3-4 check-ins.

Thank you for the reply. I did the Frances 6 years ago, in April and was afraid october would be "too quiet" compared to the previous one. I'll star october 17th from Pamplona and is always good to have company and this forum will be a great way to meet in advance.
