Camino Aragonés

The Camino Aragonés runs from Somport to Puenta la Reina
(where the route joins the Camino Francés).

Some pilgrims use this route as an alternative starting point for the Camino Francés,
instead of the often-crowded St. Jean Pied-de-Port, France or Roncesvalles, Spain. 


Way of St James (Buen Camino)

 

Apple App Store

Google Play Store
Note: reviews are based on the iPhone app…
in an iPhone, the app has “BuenCamino” under the app image—not "Way of St James.”

Clean app design, with easy to understand graphics.
Includes a feature to plan your daily stages. 

Made for you by journalist Carlos Mencos, a pilgrim himself, distinguished with the 2015 Aymeric Picaud Award for popularizing the Way of St James.

Other routes to buy & download inside the app:

  • Camino Francés (the featured route when you get the app)

  • Camino del Norte - The Northern Route

  • Primitive Route (Camino Primitivo)

  • Camino Portugués (from Tuí)

  • Aragon Route (Camino Aragonés)

  • Camino de Madrid (only in Spanish)

  • Baztan Route (Camino Baztanés)

  • Route extension to Fisterra (Finisterre)

TIP
 
When I first opened this app, I saw Spanish-language instructions.
But after clicking Start, the app became an English-language guide.
I mention this so you don't give up on the app just after opening it—
if you're not fluent in Spanish.

—Jean Christie


Camino Baztanés

The Camino Baztanés starts in Bayonne, France and runs nearly straight south, 
crossing the Pyrenees at Dancharia/Dantxarinea (Spanish language/Basque language), 
and ending in Pamplona, Spain (on the Camino Francés).

An alternative to the more crowded Sarria to Santiago de Compostela journey to qualify for the Compostela
(minimum of 100 kms required).

The Camino Inglés, or the English way, historically drew pilgrims coming from the north
(currently the UK, Scandinavia, Ireland).
