Sounds an amazing trip!
Wild camping, however, is illegal in Spain. There are certain rules that allow wild camping in national parks with quite some restrictions. Some of which being:
No camping allowed under altitude 1600m - July till 15 October this is 2000m due to fire risks
Tent can be set up from 1 hour before sunset and must be taken down 1 hour after sunrise - cannot camp on the same place twice
No camping within 500m of roads or tracks open to vehicles
No camping within 1km of asphalted roads
No camping within 50m of rivers or other waters
You must notify the National Park office of your intention to camp by post or e-mail
etc.
Then again, I think because there is a lot of Camino de Santiago de Compostela going on in the north, they are quite relaxed with these rules. So I'd say camp and have fun, but clean up your shit when you hit the road.
