Images from Brierley Camino Frances Handbook.

[Lance Chambers]

A few years ago there was a resource here that showed the towns of the route, image of the height profile, bridges, the facilities in each town, etc.

I can't seem to find the resource any more. Is there anyone who knows where I can get a copy of those pages/images?

I was dumb enough to leave my guide book behind in an alburgue for anyone else who high want it.

Many thanks.

You might have to buy the book again maybe?

I think you may be right Ivar.

Or you could go back and see if the book us still there.

Hi Lance
You’ll get a lot of the type of information you’re looking for (relating to lots of camino routes too) by opening gronze and doing some drilling into it. (Route, stages, distances, images, height profiles and lots more ). - note: when you are viewing the individual stage maps you’ll see a msg: ‘ver perfil de la etapa’ click this msg to see profile map.

Also if you are looking at the accommodation- you can click and quite often you’ll see pictures of the place. Also has direct booking facility
- and it’s free and regularly updated.

Thank you very much for this Annie. Take care. Be well.

Thank you very much for this Annie. Take care. Be well.

However ... it’s great to have a hard copy of the route you’re researching !! I like best of both worlds myself.

 

[Shalaw]

Are you referring to the John Brierley books? I’ve got a few for the different caminos and even though I don’t follow his stages because of the bed-race impact, they are very good for planning where I will stop and also what sites to see along the way.

Brierley is certainly one good resource for this sort of information (although I know a number of people who seem to think he underestimates some of the elevation changes ). There are now some other guidebooks who provide similar information. And websites (like Gronze mentioned above). And apps. There's a lot of choice.

If that is inconvenient for you I'll go back and look for you, if I can figure a way to afford it. (And if the EU will ever let us USA types in again.)

https://godesalco.com/plan/frances might help with the profiles and is fun to play with

 

[David Tallan]

It may also be worth pointing our that, if it is primarily the maps/elevations that you are interested in, they also publish "Maps only" versions of the Brierley guides with just the maps and albergue listings. These are also available as e-books if you want to save the space/weight.

for me Brierley Guide is good only for estimating the time left for next cafe con leche

Hey, Lance - did you start from Belairi on August 23 2018?

If so, hello! I was there too.

I feel you pain. I lost my guidebook, two years ago, somewhere between my last night in the alburgue and the airport home to the USA. I wrote my notes, contact info for folks I had met, etc, in that book. My email address was prominently on the cover but never a word.

Yes I was there. I hope to return sometime this year if everything's okay. Will be my 6th time. Can't stay away.

Take care.

Replacement for only about 17 euro here. Comes with a pilgrim's passport. That's a bargain, I'd say.
