Map of the Camino de Santiago in northern Spain
This website was started in 2002 with 32 pages on the Camino Francés with English capitons. Since then it has grown in size and scope every year. It now has over 500 pages, with a total of nearly 5,000 pictures. These pages give day-by-day descriptions of 8 Caminos, nearly all of them in both English and Spanish, and some of them in up to 6 other languages.

This considerable achivement has been much assisted by the Xunta de Galicia and byTourespaña through the Spanish Tourist Office in London. This sponsorship is gratefully acknowledged.

In 2008, we are planning to extend the site further, by adding pages on the Camino Primitivo from Oviedo to Lugo and the Camino Francés. We are also hoping to expand our links pages, and to add to the number of pages available in other languages.

The contribution this website is making to the needs of pilgrims is powefully demonstrated by the ncrease in traffic from 172,000 pages in 2003 to 1,362,500 pages in 2007. This increase has been much helped by our visitors who have liked the site and have told their friends or used our "send a photo" facility - please feel free to do the same!

  • This website is intended to complement the many excellent books, maps, and guides available commercially or through the national Confraternities listed in our links page
  • We hope that this site will be useful to those considering walking the Camino, to show them the conditions they can expect to encounter and the standards of the refugios. Please tell us if you have found it helpful in this way.
  • We also hope that it will be a useful reminder to those who have, like us, walked the Camino in the past. Please tell us
  • If you would be interested in taking the digital photographs for any other parts of the Caminoin France or Spain, please get in touch by Email
  • We would welcome your feedback - particularly if you can identify any of the flowers I was keen to photograph but hopeless at naming.
