Spain - Santiago de Compostela pilgrimage resources
Unfortunately, I've had to can this trip to Spain due to events
beyond my control. However, I've left this page up so you
can see what I did find out out.
I'm looking at doing a pilgramage to Santiago de Compostela
in the Northern Spanish region of Galicia. These are but some
of the resources and things I've found out about the pilgramage.
Although there are several
routes for the pilgramage, we'll most likely take the Camino
Ingles - aka the English Route.
Guide books
During my four-week trip through Spain in 2004, I relied heavily
on the Spain
guide book by Lonely Planet which
has since been updated to the one displayed on the right. The
Lonely Planet is an excellent resource covering the complete
country with plenty of useful, practical information and handy
hints with a bit of history thrown in for good measure.
Other books which might be useful
I've not read these books but they might be worth reading
before or during the trip.
Pilgrimage resources
The
Confraternity of St James - extensive information
about the pilgramage and routes to Santiago. Includes
excellent history of the pilgramage and extensive practical
information.
Routes
to Santiago - published by the Confraternity
of St James, the useful information includes details
on the length, terrain and where to stop and stay.
