French Route

This is the best-known and most noteworthy route to St James by far. The main branch of the French Route enters Spain at Valcarlos and Roncesvalles, in Navarre, and runs across the north of the peninsula in an east-west direction.

Best Camino App!

This is the best app to use when walking the Camino. It makes navigation so easy and provides very useful tips and insight into the places and sights along the way. A Camino must-have!!

Étapes de retour

Votre application est fantastique bravo pour le travail réalisé c’est remarquable.
Une amélioration qui serait à apporter, pouvoir faire le chemin retour, serait encore plus formidable et donnerait plus de pouvoir à l’application. À l’heure actuelle c’est fastidieux et pas facile de faire un plan de route retour. C’est vrai que nous ne sommes pas très nombreux à vouloir le faire mais nous existons quand même. Pour moi c’est trop tard, mais pour les pèlerins à venir faire ce retour se serait magique de simplicité !!!
Encore merci 🙏🏼

Response from developer

Merci beaucoup pour vos mots et pour cette suggestion ! C’est vrai que peu de pèlerins font le Camino en sens inverse, mais je comprends parfaitement l’utilité de cette fonction. Je la note pour les futures améliorations de Buen Camino. Merci encore et Buen Camino !

It’s not working

Can’t use this app. I need this app. But after I signed, then updating is never ending and not working.

Recommended Camino App

It’s free for use, yet the $9.99/year donation allows full download access to all routes and other features.
This is the recommended app by Camino volunteers
