Hello, is that possible to do camino primitivo on winter for a solo female? Thanks. I wanted to try that route as I don't like to walk on crowded place.

I bought my return air ticket to Santiago but have yet to decide on the route to be taken. I have total 14 full days.

Primitivo is probably not crowded in November, but be aware that it may be difficult to find a place to sleep. I was on Norte in February 2020 and almost all albergues were closed and many hostels too.

Yes, as Heikki says, you may find the albergues are closed, so you'd need to check well in advance for private accommodation, especially in the smaller places. You might also find that the weather isn't suitable for the Hospitales route, though you could go via the Pola de Allande route instead.
You'd definitely need stout footwear as the paths will probably be muddy. Still, a wonderful route! Happy planning!

I might be on the Primitivo in the first half of November. I just looked through gronze and although several albergues are closed then, the majority are listed as open. I would still verify openings in advance though

I am confident that no Camino routes will be crowded in late November, so you don't need to limit yourself to the Primitivo.
