Wow!! Check this map out!

Just in time for planning purposes, Kinky1 has just blown my mind by posting this link on another thread:
http://www.rayyrosa.com/loscaminos

If all the different caminos blur for you into a fog of confusion, this map is seriously enlightening. Now there are names for the (many many) more ways than one to get to Santiago! (You old hands know all the details of this already, but I was lost...)

Besides being complete, it's fun too--click on the route and often a link shows up, and down the rabbit hole you go.
Seems way too good to hide in an obscure corner of the forum, in the height of planning season.
Happy exploring, everyone....
 
The one from Galicia (the round) and the one from Castilla & Leon. Individually numbered and made by the same people that make the ones you see on your walk.
The focus is on reducing the risk of failure through being well prepared. 2nd ed.
Fantastic map! Thanks!

Hi Viranani :)

did you opened this link?
On Camino Francese Maps Web does not work. Also, from Portomarin - Santiago there are no albergues. And alternative routes not processed. A few things in just 10 minutes. ;)

For me, gronze.com and caminoteca.com are better. :cool:


Bota
 
Down bag (90/10 duvet) of 700 fills with 180 g (6.34 ounces) of filling. Mummy-shaped structure, ideal when you are looking for lightness with great heating performance.

€149,-
did you opened this link?
Of course, Bota...in fact it's open in another tab right now.
And you're right, to a point.
Its totally fantastic for the big picture, not for the details. And certainly there are gazillion other places to find the information about the Frances. I needed to know simply things like, 'Where exactly does the Ebro go?,'or 'Does the VdlP go through Zaragosa?,' and so on. And for that it's brilliant.

Some minor and interesting differences.
I still wish there was a decent and more accurate version on paper--it would have to be a larger scale, perhaps in sections.
And I always want a paper map (say, 1:100,000 or less) of whatever camino I am considering. (I know...this is sooooo old fashioned. And I guess like Jill I'm a map geek. But a topo map does for me what a GPS never can.)
Edit--and now I've found this site--which I am certain oldies know about, but I didn't--so apologies to those of you've who've seen posts like this many times!:

Indeed.
I find myself wondering how many lives it'd take a not-too-obsessed peregrina/o to walk all these!:D

Me too! I don't want my world to be limited to a screen but instead to have edges to walk off...

Hi Viranani, I think a PM to alansykes might help. He has used those maps on his more remote walks on several occasions, and I have no idea how he does it.

I never bother with the printed maps, because I inevitably look at them upside down or sideways and then wind up more lost than I would be without it. Ridiculous, I know. I bought a GPS two years ago to accompany me on the Camino Olvidado and it really saved me one time. Then I had it again last year on the Catalan , but on several occasions I just couldn't get it to work. But I think I'm working out those kinks. Anyway, I know that the last thing any of us needs is another device to carry but my family is pretty insistent that I take it when I'm out on these untraveled caminos with no one in sight. I haven't told them about the many times that I turn on the device and I can't find the maps though. :)

Hi Viranani, I think a PM to alansykes might help.
Good idea, Laurie! I managed to figure out how to get a map on the screen. But then I keep getting error messages when I try to tell it what to display. I'm doing somehting wrong. Probably something simple and stupid. But I am also from a BC generation. Some things take patience.
I don't want my world to be limited to a screen but instead to have edges to walk off...
Why it makes a difference I don't know, but it does...
Besides it's easier and faster. Nothing to turn on, or fail--besides the brain that is. That's another story.

Ha!...you know what that means? We won't care whether we're on the camino, or not. Now the trick question, Meri...do you want that to happen sooner, or later?:cool:
 
Thanks. Great map. I just wish I spoke (or could read) Spanish. Something to work on.
 
Get a spanish phone number with Airalo. eSim, so no physical SIM card. Easy to use app to add more funds if needed.

I can place myself in the world on a paper map. I use technology, it was my livelihood, but we seem to be moving away from our ability to navigate in the real world. It's always useful to have both paper and digital.

much, much later... I have so much more to learn and so many untravelled roads to learn upon...

That's exactly it isn't it? And the map of all those caminos shows the many many possibilities. Just in Spain, never mind the rest of the world! (And I love what Reb said in another thread--pilgrims pray with their feet. That's a lot of compassionate action in a world that desperately needs it.)

People usually consider walking on water or in thin air a miracle. But I think the real miracle is not to walk either on water or in thin air, but to walk on earth. Every day we are engaged in a miracle which we don't even recognize: a blue sky, white clouds, green leaves, the black, curious eyes of a child - our own two eyes. All is a miracle.

I just downloaded the Wikiloc app from the App Store, and the Camino de Madrid track file (.gpx) from the web site.

I cannot tolerate the "off season." I need to plan, or at least day-dream about my 2016 plans...Madrid to Sahagun (Moratinos), thence to Santiago...hopefully.

Can't say it much better than that!
And I'm guessing it will feel especially miraculous when you next set foot on a Camino Path, Meri...happy healing to you...

planning... rehabilitation... more planning... more rehabilitation... :rolleyes:
 
While the rest of us (except Margaret) are swanning around, taking walking completely for granted. Shame on us!
I hope you both get back on your feet and back on the Camino pronto!

Actually there are no maps on Peter Robins site that I'm familiar with. I used GPS tracks to check if still being on the right route several times :) On-line of course.
