I developed this app after my trip on the Camino in Spring, 2013, to better help fellow pilgrims focus on their journey and reap the spiritual rewards.
I would be very happy to hear from you. Any feedback and comments on how to improve this app are welcome and would be most helpful.

What an amazing tool! Walking solo at age 70 and with a knee injury, I was able to customize my very own camino itinerary at a much slower pace than usually suggested and adjust it every day as needed. It took me 49 days to walk from SJPP to Santiago, I never reserved ahead and I always found a bed just when I needed it, thanks to this app. Really great & highly recommended.
The most useful resource for the camino! You can customise your intinary and use google maps, so you know how far you need to go, and also get a good sense of better towns to spend the night! Used it every day and appreciated it so much ♥️♥️♥️
This was all I used to navigate my way through the Camino. The map was good as it showed me where I was at all times on the route and how far to the next stage. Also great for finding accommodation.
It's great. It has all the infos a pilgrim needs: weather forecast, albergues available with their contact information, distances between places.
I used this app to plan and hike the Camino de Santiago and it was great and very accurate making my journey less worrisome. It was invaluable and helped me find lodging at each stop on the way.
This is the app that my son and I used to walk the Camino in 2016. It kept us on the path and helped us find every nights stay. Awesome app for every pilgrim. Never used the book I brought... only this!
Very easy and useful to use, some really good information for the journey on the Camino, lets you know destinations and the mileage between each stop.
great app for information but out of date. it would be nice if users could submit revosed information. Also a bit mpre info on places and maybe terrain would be great.
This was one of the most convenient apps I ever used. Like having someone there with you on the Camino who was an expert! :)
Super useful tool. Recommend using when walking, with book as reference and planning the night before.
really useful app, i'm using it every day on my camino but the prices of the alberges are 1 or 2 € more expensive in real life
I am walking the El Camino as I rate this app, and I'm finding it very useful to find the best albergue each day.
really useful and informative for planning the Camino de Santiago. it is a great starting point for me.
Amazing app. Used it during the 2021 Camino and loving it. Thank you so much for this app.
a fantastic app with up to date and correct information.
I use this app during camino frances every time I lost the route it is helpful and it is easy to use thank you
Excellent app, very informative and easy to use. Thank you.
Very good. Will be perfect when variants are added. Thanks!
Five time Camino Francés walker...good shoes, backpack and this app is all I need!!
Worked on my Samsung S7, but just crashes on my new Pixel 3 XL.
I used this app when I walked in 2016, now am contemplating walking this same route this year 2020.
Very helpful and very easy to use.
Very useful and informative.
This app has everything I need. can't wait to start using it on my Journey.
This app looks good so far but the actual review will come when I finish the Camino.
I've studied this App and determined itll be my go to guide for my Camino in 2020. One big question, does it update Albuergue status regularly?
Using this to prepare for our journey in 2023. Kinda had to delay things.....
Handy guide to the Camino that saves carrying a book.
really handy to plan the camino
What an excellent app! We just completed the Camino Frances, and used this app all the time. It worked well in conjunction with the 'Camino Guide' app, which includes details like trail profile, info on localities, etc., but it's not free. This one was most useful in planning our day, stops, and finding albergues. The map function was not very useful, but we used Google maps for that anyway. I will make a donation, as it compares well with other paid apps.
