Odd town, I wonder what the draw is? How early do you start? I'd be inclined to start with the sun up, walk until 11, break until 3 and then maybe put in 2 more hours. Is this at all practical? Of course if it is cool and more comfortable, then I may well hike through the mid day. Cheers Alice!
Probably built as a speculative suburb of Santo Domingo which fell apart after the 2008 collapse. Start at 8:30 am and try to finish by 3-4 pm to get a bed in the albergues which go quickly. You need to find a place unless you prebook, the you have wiggle room. Still, you need time to shower and hand wash your clothes and join others for the evening meal at 7 pm. Pretty much defines your day, the walking.
