- Time of past OR future Camino
- Planning Kumano Kodo and Pamplona - Burgos in 2025
Last winter I did the last 100KM of the Portugues between Christmas and New Year's. I enjoyed it a lot -- Spain definitely does this time of year right, and spending New Year's Eve in Santiago was a lot of fun -- but I confess I was surprised at how few services (accomodations and cafes) were open along the route. I guess I just assumed that enough people do the last 100KM routes year round (and particularly during what would be considered a holiday week) that more would be open. My bad.
I'm getting the itch again, and am considering doing the Sanabres from Ourense that same week this year. Given how little traveled the route is even in season, do you all think this is feasible/worthwhile? If so, where would be best to split my stages so that I have not only someplace to sleep at night (preferably a private alberge or similar), but also hopefully someplace to stop at least for lunch during the days?
