I think these yellow guidebooks are updated every year.
Thanks. Sad to hear that they have moved it to the web. As I prefer on paper to write notes etc. I'm using digital tools at work all day and at the camino I want to be more analog.The English version of the association's guide is very out of date. As others have said, they have moved everything over to the web, but it is in Spanish. It is amazingly complete, a great resource with historical and cultural information, and for the basic info like accommodation, no translation is needed. I have always wished I spoke German, though, because there seem to be guides for every remote camino you can think of. And competition -- I've heard lots of debates about the relative merits of the Yellow guides and the Red guides.
I think you will love this camino, Beatrice. Lots of castles and wide open spaces, and a few great mountain stages thrown in for good measure! Those first few days on asphalt are tedious, though. Buen camino, Laurie
Thanks will have a look at the guide and web site you mention. I don't understand a word in French though but I manage Spanish quite well. Will not look at the videos now as I prefer to have my first impression my self.In 2019, I used a french guide "Le Chemin du Levant et le Camino Sanabrès" written by Gérard du Camino : https://www.amazon.fr/chemin-Levant-Camino-Sanabria-Valencia/dp/2952870667/ref=sr_1_7?__mk_fr_FR=ÅMÅŽÕÑ&keywords=gérard+du+camino&qid=1581435157&sr=8-7
Some minor mistakes but useful for accommodation. The lengths of stages are not correct (often less than reality !).

I have looked there but I really prefer a guide book that I can use without phone, computer and that allows me to add notes etc. Don't have to be stressed out when the phone can't be charged or as on my last camino, died for 3 days if not connected to an outlet. I can alway just take some of the info and add to a word document and print as a book myself.I haven’t walked yet (leaving after Easter), but I’ve based my planning on the guide that is available on the Amigos’ website.

If you like I can send you my document - it's 32 pages of the walking instructions and condensed elevations. I also have a spreadsheet with the cheap accommodations, supermarket locations and my proposed staging (slower than yours I expect, but I include all places)
would someone be able to confirm whether this is in fact legal?
Might see you on the road. I arrive in Spain on 21 April and have a couple of days in Valencia before making a slow start.Hello again, Rachael (@Kiwi-family),
muchismas gracias, thank you so much, mille grazie, danke schön!
This will help a lot for my Camino 2020, starting around April, 25.

That would be lovely! beatrice.karjalainen@gmail.com Notes from the peers is always a bless to have.@BeatriceKarjalainen I have done EXACTLY that for the Very Same Reasons. If you like I can send you my document - it's 32 pages of the walking instructions and condensed elevations. I also have a spreadsheet with the cheap accommodations, supermarket locations and my proposed staging (slower than yours I expect, but I include all places) That runs to another nine pages but could be shortened considerably by removing the notes from the likes of Laurie, BadPilgrim and KinkyOne (sssh don't tell them I said that)

@Kiwi-familyThat would be lovely! beatrice.karjalainen@gmail.com Notes from the peers is always a bless to have.
Here's a PDF of my spreadsheet (including all the details that are useful to me but probably not you!) and the elevations and also the walking directions for the Invierno. Please note I tend to only include cheap accommodation options but there are many more. Feel free to use as you wish.
A PDF of walking directions for the Levante is further up in this thread. I'm in the process of checking with the Amigos if they are OK about it being here.
