    there are plenty of placed to buy bottled water and you can drink out of many of the fountains – there are signs for drinking water but please dont throw away the plastic bottle on the ground – there is soo much litter on the Camino, please carry it with you to the nearest bin but have a great walk you will love it

Stages use below are the same as in the Brierly Guidebook
