Looking for a High-Res Map of Spain.

[Denniswalkcamino]

Does anyone have a High-res digital map of Spain? I want to print it out and dot it with where I walked. Thank you

Depends what you mean by high-res?

The goto is Spain's IGN and there is a list of different high-res there. You are not likely to have a computer with a big enough memory/processing capability for some of the resolutions available. But you can find what you are [likely] looking for here.

Why not buy a paper map or series of paper maps and dot those. You will have to buy large scale maps if you want to go to trail level.

You could download the IGN topographic map

This will give you the CF in six separate sheets, cropped to remove titles etc. They look like this.

the sixth one being the uncropped one above (Santiago).
Not sure if this is what you’r looking for.

I should have posted those in reverse order.

Definitely Iberpix as @Peregrinopaul suggests. Note that there are different layers (“capas”) in addition to the topographic map shown in this thread. I find the current Iberpix version less intuitive than previous ones but there are explanatory videos on YouTube.

Depending on your intended purpose, there is also Google Earth Pro. You can mark points or draw a path and export or print the image. I have done this (printed on paper as well as stored in digital form on iPad) and used it when I wanted to show family or friends where I’ve walked.

Sounds like a great idea, I will give google earth a try!. thanks

Thanks Paul. Appreciate your maps.

Thanks everyone for the suggestions.

Thanks everyone for the suggestions.

One last idea: National Geographic has a nice map of northern Spain with Frances and Norte routes. I use it for planning and show-and-tell.

The east half is on one side and the west on the other side though.

Maybe buy two and some scotch tape?

Of course, if you recorded your route you could overlay it on the map before printing. It would also show you getting lost and jumping in taxis and busses, so maybe some editing could be needed....

I'm picturing Dennis at a wall completely covered with a map of northern Spain pointing to a little spur off the track of the Camino and saying "And this is the place where I wandered off the trail to rescue a tree that needed watering."
