Is there anywhere that the distances between villages on the Torres are published? It will help if I want to adjust my stages. I have it all planned out, but that includes planning to change my plan if circumstances warrant it, and it looks like that might be the case.
 
...and ship it to Santiago for storage. You pick it up once in Santiago. Service offered by Casa Ivar (we use DHL for transportation).

A Forum member, @Magwood , has a blog about her stages on the Torres. Maybe it can help you a bit, starting from Salamanca:


Or this one, on this Forum (started in 2011, with some links to other places):

That helps, for the cases where my planned stages are exactly the same as hers. Just as I can get the distances for the "official" stages on the website, where I coincide with those. I was just hoping that somewhere there was something more comprehensive, to give me more freedom for stage starts and stops informed by the distances.

I certainly get your point, especially considering your current foot problem. The Torres seems to be a Camino with few options... The above was the result of a quick Google session. Here is one more:

 
Hi, David, This is probably not going to help much, but it's the document I walked with in 2022. I used wikiloc tracks to find my way and used this list of accommodations and towns.

Have you tried a simple Google search with: camino torres etapas

Yes. I have that. But if, for example, I want to go Trancoso - Ponte do Abade - Vila da Ponte - Beira Valente instead of Trancoso - Sernancelhe- Beira Valente then the site you linked to does not have enough information. I was hoping for something more comprehensive to facilitate flexibility in adjusting those stages.

But based on @peregrina2000's post above, with the knowledge that Vila da Ponte is supposed to be 3 km after Sernancelhe, I can come up with:
Trancoso to Ponte do Abade 21 km
Ponte do Abade to Vila da Ponte 9 km
Vila da Ponte to Beira Valente 18 km

Assuming I don't get lost again.
 
Get a spanish phone number with Airalo. eSim, so no physical SIM card. Easy to use app to add more funds if needed.
As long as you are following the original route you will find all that informations and more on these included maps.
like Albergue 'Eu Peregrino' on Beira Valente. So when you move the cursor along the hills you find out that Beira Valente is 3.9km after Moimenta da Beira.
But everyone has his own system to get the necessary informations. So have fun.

I hadn't tried moving the cursor on the altitude maps. Thanks for the tip!
 
Fail to prepare? reduce your risk by buying this book full of practical info.

Hola - anyone who thinks that love and friendship and support for a virtual stranger no longer exists, well then I suggest that they read the above posts. Such a wealth of knowledge and honest suggests you will go a long way to top. To all of you who offered David that support a big big Buen Camino.

I went to pre-register for my Compostela and Distance Certificate and wasn't sure what to do. Camino Torres wasn't listed so I went to "Otros Caninos" but Salamanca or its region were not listed...
