Just wanted some advise on walking camino primitivo during beginning of Oct. On reaching Santiago I was planning to walk to Porto following the central route.
Is this advisable, are the albergue open during this time..
Any advise appreciated.

Thanks

Many albergues and cafés along the Primitivo close in October...use Gronze and WhatsApp to determine what is open.

Markers going backwards to Porto may be challenging...how will you navigate?

Finally, what's your age, general fitness, walking experience, and tolerance for cold? Nothing is "advisable" if this is your first long multi- day walk in the fall. .

How cold would it normally be

For navigation isn't the central route to Porto marked..

It’s marked to get you from Porto to Santiago. I would imagine relying solely on markers to get from Santiago to Porto would be difficult, though you could probably do it with the aid of an app like Wise Pilgrim.
