    Is Novellana on this route? I’m walking from Santiago to Muxía and then on to Finesterre.

    Lires is the only town (that I know of) between the two. I stayed in the hotel Liresca one year and it was very nice. https://liresca.com/

    Progress tracker for myself and family

    As I mentioned in the other thread, I use Find Penguins. I like how it creates a map of my Camino as I go. When you click on one of the places it takes you to the day's blog post. https://findpenguins.com/

    Start where we are or walk the extra distance to the edge of Irún?

    There is no "official" start. There are places where guide books, apps and websites start, but they are not "official." Gronze's first Norte stage is from Bayonne. https://www.gronze.com/camino-norte
