What does your Google Maps in Spain look like?

jungleboy · Feb 13, 2018

Hopefully this can be a fun little thread. I like it how my Google Maps shows that I have done the Camino Francés because of all the places I starred along the way.

What does your Google Maps (or other map service) look like?

Hello, you have to explain how to do that on a desktop. AFAIK, this star feature is only available on IOS and Android. BTW, your map is not clickable - can you give us its URL?

I just opened Google Maps on desktop (while logged in) and took a screenshot - it's not a public map/link, I just wanted to share the image because I like the way it looks with the stars following the route of the Camino Francés. Hope that answers your questions.

Mappingsupport.com allows you to add points and tracks to maps by creating a URL with the data contained within it. Then you get an interactive map. Here's our camino:

If you have a way to create GPX files of your path, you can upload them to https://www.wikiloc.com/

A screenshot of my starred places in Portugal on Google Maps. Using the stars you can trace the CP, Nascente/Torres/Geira, Rota Vicentina and now the CPI!

Is there a meaning behind the different colors?

Based on the icons, it looks like all you did was eat and drink your way across Spain!

I added to my map the places to stay, eat and drink recommended here in the Forums. Since I've mainly been following the general and Frances and Portugues forums (those being the Caminos I've walked so far), those are where most of the recommendations I see are located. It's in the description on the Google Map (if you click "more" in the description upper left). I also include a request that people email me updates and provide my email address. Who knows how many of those recommended places are still there.

Hi all, I’m starting my Camino Frances on May 12. I’ve booked my first night in SJPDP, but I’m starting to worry I need to book more. My plan was to take it day by day and just turn up, but lots...

I am wondering how you disconnect, in part, from the world. I have a couple of reasons that I need to be accessible but, I don't want to be constantly connected on this journey. Ideas?

Money stolen from bag on bed while sleeping. Estelle municipal hostel. Not a big inconvenience as my passport and credit cards were left.

Or do you prefer Cromwell's attitude? Put your trust in God and keep your powder dry. I am starting to get tired of the attitude that it isn't necessary to take reasonable care and thought...
