Copy of recent albergue list

[Orujo]

Does anyone know where I can get hold of the sheets of paper they hand out in the Pilgrims Office in SJPDP which list all the albergues with their contact details? Im heading back to Burgos soon to finish the Frances and not sure where to get the updated list for this year. Do they send out PDF versions by email for those not starting in St Jean? Or is there a link to these showing the latest content? Muchos gracias

If you can't get that list you can consult Gronze.com, which should be at least as up to date as the list from the Pilgrims Office.

El Camino Francés es el Camino de Santiago en el que confluyen la mayoría de las vías medievales de peregrinación europeas, siendo por tanto el camino de mayor relevancia histórica y el más seguido por los peregrinos. Su punto de inicio, hoy en día, tanto puede considerarse Roncesvalles como...

I remember getting my albergue list in SJPP and found it most helpful. However, since that first Camino, I’ve depended more on getting current information online. In particular, at gronze.com, and for a number of different caminos, I’ve found their information most useful as they seem to include many if not most of the albergues along The Way. Plus, there’s the convenience of pulling up a stage list on my phone whenever I have wifi which seems to be slmost everywhere these days.

Ok thanks, I do have Gronze.com bookmarked on my phone so will get familiar with it before I head off.

The Pilgrims Office in SJPDP has a Facebook page, and I just asked them if the list is available as a PDF.
I'll let you know if I hear back from them.

I already got an answer - no PDF available. I did suggest that it would be useful if it were available as a PDF.

Thank you for enquiring via their FB page. Interesting they won’t send out a PDF, but then their website is very dated and maybe modern technology not high on their priorities. Annoyingly I left all my sheets on a table at a bar somewhere along the way and hadn’t saved photos of each page on my phone. Lesson learned.

They followed up on their answer and told me they are legally not allowed to distribute it as a PDF, which seems odd.

they are legally not allowed

Maybe they mean they have a policy of not distributing it as a PDF, and that could be for various reasons, including potential legal complications, so they don't want to bother. The information is available elsewhere, anyway.

Their list is grossly inaccurate this year, so I would not even bother. In addition to the other resources, wisepilgrim.com also has an up to date and free list.

OK that's good to know. I'll bookmark WisePilgrim.com. Thank you!

It might be even better to download the CF wise pilgrim app. Same information but on your phone immediately plus a gps in case (probably will not happen on the Frances) you get lost or to find an albergue.
