Hi, my wife and I are walking from Baiona to Santiago de Compostela in May. Any suggestions for trail maps?

Thanks

Assuming you have a smartphone (iPhone or Android) there are many sources for gps tracks. Here is just one post from the forum:

https://www.caminodesantiago.me/com...ks-of-all-portuguese-caminos-in-one-file.503/

There are also apps that you can use to download the maps. I used Geoperegrino, Peregrino Online, Wisely+, and others.

You have to see which one suits your needs and more importantly, the level of technical expertise to access the maps. Some are just a download once button, others have to be refreshed but have better information. I also just saw a post about someone who had put all of the caminos into an online gps set. Not sure if that is overkill or not or how hard it is to subset.

Also, be careful that you clearly understand for any app which require the internet to function and which just require a GPS signal (i.e. you download the maps before you start or at some wifi point and then use them as needed).
 
3rd Edition. More content, training & pack guides avoid common mistakes, bed bugs etc
Wikiloc is not a map, but a track sharing site. Before the download you have to register.

Try https://hiking.waymarkedtrails.org/ as online map and take one of the offline apps for your mobile phone.
Like "waymarked trails" most apps use the data from openstreetmap as source for their offline maps. It's just different views on the same data.

caminador.es is really worth a look, but don't think it's totally acurate (like a swiss map). Main languages for comments are Spanish and Portuguese, but it doesn't really matter if you speak it. The maps speak for themselves.

My husband and I are going in May and starting from Baiona, too! We start May 11th but will go slow. Will arrive in SDC on the 18th.
