Favourite Camino Waymarking Signs

[jungleboy]

Do you have any photos of camino signs or arrows that you particularly like for any reason?

Here are a couple of mine.

This is from the Camino Primitivo, somewhere near Tineo - near the muddy section, if I recall correctly, which would make sense! How cute are the snails?



This one is from near the end of the Camino Francés in Galicia. I don't usually like graffiti at all, but when it's your first camino and you've walked 700+km (and recently in the rain), seeing a sign like this does pick you up a bit and make you feel pretty good!

At a crossroads between Finisterre and Muxia...tough call!

Piedmont way, France. The sign that indicates the righ path, with a little walker in yellow, over blue and red. And a big one remembering that in the Pyrenees, they love sheeps.

This one made me take off my earbuds and really pay attention as I climbed onto the plateau (somehere on the meseta). It was silent, no birds or critters, and no other Pilgrims until I started down the hill into the next village. This way marker was right before I walked into an eery moonscape — very freaky for a city girl like me. “Are you ready 2 listen and observe?” YES!

Scarcely credible precision?

Scarcely credible precision?

Lucky the comma represents the continental European meaning and not the Anglophone meaning, otherwise that would be a long way to walk!

When the Camino de Madrid approaches Segovia, the typical shell-arrow stone markers have a stylised version of Segovia’s Roman aqueduct on them, which I thought was a nice touch.

This one was taken on the Camino Mozarabe recently. I liked the suggestion of a view through a Moorish arch in the design.

Looks like you are heading toward some pulpo.
