[QUOTE="David Tallan, post: 1180392, member: 31995"] What should you do to get the most out of this walk? I think it depends on what you are looking for. But I think you have already answered yourself with "enjoying the flow and be yourself". If you don't want to miss the historical points or the important places with history, and you are walking the Camino Frances, I highly recommend getting a copy of Gitlitz and Davidson's [I]The Pilgrimage Road to Santiago: A Complete Cultural Handbook [/I](also available as an ebook, and recommended above by SabsP). There really is nothing else as good for this information. Many guidebooks will also give this information, as well as information about the routes, places to sleep, etc. The Brierley guidebooks are probably the most popular English-language guidebooks, but there are a number of others. There is a Village to Village series, Cicerone publishes a number of guidebooks, and a number of people like the Moon guidebook to the Frances by Beebe Bahrami. Many people just use apps. The Wise Pilgrim and Buen Camino apps are popular. The Gronze app (in Spanish, but most web browsers will translate) is also very popular. Most people use it for its information about places to stay, but if you go to the "Al Loro (to the parrot)" tab, there is information about historical points and things not to miss. All you really need to do is keep walking every day (except rest days). [/QUOTE]
