The 2024 Camino guides will be coming out little by little. Here is a collection of the ones that are out so far.
The first edition came out in 2003 and has become the go-to-guide for many pilgrims over the years. It is shipping with a Pilgrim Passport (Credential) from the cathedral in Santiago de Compostela.

We called it a Pilgrims' Resort. I had gorgeous weather that day so I bought a bottle of rosé and spent the day chatting with friends in the shade, surrounded but hanging laundry. Enjoy!

And don't forget the foot fountain outside!
Ideal sleeping bag liner whether we want to add a thermal plus to our bag, or if we want to use it alone to sleep in shelters or hostels. Thanks to its mummy shape, it adapts perfectly to our body.

I just have to throw a spanner in the works here. Anyone who is doing the camino in the winter don't get excited. When I was in Azofra in March 2010 the main albergue was shut and we had a bug ridden barracks to sleep in, by bugs, in this case ,I am referring to beetles etc.!
I may have been unlucky but I imagine it usually closes over winter. I thought the blurb I read about the place was too good to be true and for us it was :cry:

I left Logroño 14/09/2011 6:00 heading to Najera.
I arrived at Najera around 16:00
There were a lot of people. There was a long queue. It was very hot, I saw through the door many beds, less place to put things and few shower facilities.
I said: no more, so I took my stuff a headed for Azofra in full heat (30 C)
I survived on some Rioja grapes, I had just enough water to wash them.
After 1h30 I arrived in Azofra and had the fifth last bed.
PARADISE !!!!!!!!!!!!!
I met again the "French Connection" (Charles, Alain, Gerard,...)
Alain sang for me "Je ne regrette rien" (Edith Piaf). It s on video.
I m trying now to catch up again the French Connection but they must be far ahead.....

Well, sorry, but I have a different opinion.
We found bedbugs in Fall of 2009 when we were there.
Had to try several rooms until I found a bug-free bed.
I much preferred the parochial in Azofra where I stayed in 2006 -- but alas, it was closed.
The people were lovely, however.
And the village itself is wonderful!
I did a blog on the festival we attended (with photos)
