For those of you who understand Spanish, here is an excellent site with by far the best information I have so far found in the internet.

Every part of the route is perfectly explained, with reliefs and detailed descriptions of ALL official and private albergues on the way, sightseing, monuments, photos, info about public transport, tips for planning the trip...

Try it out - I would appreciate a feedback :mrgreen:

CU, Kerstin

Ideal sleeping bag liner whether we want to add a thermal plus to our bag, or if we want to use it alone to sleep in shelters or hostels. Thanks to its mummy shape, it adapts perfectly to our body.

€46,-

I love this site too! I love the interactive map. I've given it to my friends/family as a link so that they can see more or less what I'll be watching each day. Even if you do not know Spanish the map is really useful. If you do know Spanish the whole site is great.
 
Very light, comfortable and compressible poncho. Specially designed for protection against water for any activity.

Our Atmospheric H30 poncho offers lightness and waterproofness. Easily compressible and made with our Waterproof fabric, its heat-sealed interior seams guarantee its waterproofness. Includes carrying bag.

The first edition came out in 2003 and has become the go-to-guide for many pilgrims over the years. It is shipping with a Pilgrim Passport (Credential) from the cathedral in Santiago de Compostela.
This is a great site- thank you for introducing me to it!

In case anyone is planning on relying on it, I just wanted to add that the list of albergues is not entirely comprehensive - several I stayed in are not listed. It is always worthwhile comparing a couple of sources as the information changes regularly and despite everyones best efforts lists are quickly slightly outdated.
