Checked online in October 2026. Places marked "listed, not confirmed" appear on a public listing (Gronze or an albergue guide updated in 2026) but could not be confirmed on their own website. Public albergues open in the afternoon and work first come, first served; private ones can be booked by phone, WhatsApp or online, and many close in winter. Baggage-transfer services carry your pack to the next stage for a few euros; book them the evening before.
