¡Hola Peregrinos!

I head to Irun early in September to walk del Norte.

I have ordered the new edition of the Dave Whitson / Laura Perazzoli del Norte / Primitive Cicerone Guide. It is due to be released August 30 so while the timing should work there is a chance I won't get the book before I depart.

Is there a good stage-by-stage online / PDF resource at least for the first week or so I can use as "insurance?"

Thanks!

The Buen Camino app was very popular when I walked the Norte earlier this year ... more reliable than the guide book too, although I had the older edition rather than the newest one.

The route is very well marked though, and you'll meet lots of people on the way, although not as many as the Frances of course. If you dont get a book in time, I think you'll find you are OK. The municipal albergue in Irun give out a list of albergues for the first region of Spain too.

I also like the Buen Camino app

APP del Camino de Santiago Buen Camino 2014 - 2024

Aplicación del Camino de Santiago profesional, con mapas, perfiles, alojamientos, planificador de etapas, a pie o en bici (Btt), en idiomas y actualizada.

I also have the Wisely app, but rely more on Buen Camino.

The Gronze website is also very helpful, and there are Camino del Norte guidebooks that you can get in Kindle format to use on your phone.

We’re on the Norte now and are using the Buen Camino app. It works offline wonderfully and the route is very well marked. Buen Camino

We have the new guide to the Ingles (UK) and in the back it says that you can download the GPX files. You need to give your email address and details of where you bought the hard copy. Implies that if you own the hard copy then the GPPX files are free or reduced.
Not sure how it works as the GPX link, near the foot of the page, goes to the log-in page, but worth a try maybe after the 30th when the book is actually published.
