There's a guide published by the Amigos del Camino de Santiago de Sevilla.Caminantes, buen dia.
Looking for an up-to-date guide for VDLP (hard copy preferred).
Buen camino, y no pares de caminar.
Try the "Walking Guide to the Vía de la Plata and the Camino Sanabrés" wrote by Gerald Kelly.Caminantes, buen dia.

Ok SailorMister Flem, thanks for the recommendation, I have the 2015 edition and I will check the latest copy of GK's guide. No pares de caminar!
Just an update; Been waiting many years for the new Cicerone/Alison Raju VdlP Guide. Was due (this time...) Feb 2019. After contacting Cicerone, they now expect it to be published 2020...but won't indicate a month. I'm not holding my breath...Gerald Kelly it is!IMHO this is the one camino that does need further research and production of a Brierley style guide (if one wants a guide in full colour) About 12/13 or more years ago Alison Raju did write such a guide which was very well received. Sadly that book is now not only out of print its totally out of date. Her publishers did start "promising" a revised/update edition going back more than 5 years but it has never eventuated.
I have read one of Kelly's books and consider him a good writer. In the 2018 edition he advises that he re-walked in 2016 to check facts etc. So until something or someone new comes along I have to agree that a combo of Kelly & one of the online guides is the best option. Buen Camino
One of the (many) delays in the publishing of the VdlP Cicerone guide actually worked in my favour....Hola @kazrobbo gee its good to know that Cicerone are keeping up with their almost empty promises. Cheers
