[Gocamino] Santiago/french route

[Renee Fox]

If I do not have time for entire route, can I start at beginning, and take buses some parts and end in Santiago and still have a compostella if I walk over 120 kilometers? I heard there are so many special places along that way that I would like to see. Thank you.

PocketEarth absolutely rocks. I have been in dialog with all the developers of offline maps, and the winner is unequivocally PocketEarth. I can email anyone tracks for all the major routes in Spain, and actually the Via Fancigena UK to Vatican, and the Camino from Konstanz DE to Santiago as well. The track can be imported into PocketEarth and - voila - you have a complete mapping guide in your pocket. I put all of Spain and Portugal into the device at a minimum, but you can add locations by city, province or country. Just going to be in Paris? No need to put in all of France. Just going to be in Castilla-Leon aNd Galicia? Load them alone. Brilliant stuff.

For my own use, I cut out the pages I wanted from my MMDD hard copy and scanned them one at a time into my desktop. This way they come out as individual pictures which is not as convenient as in book form, but can be organized into a reasonable useful set. This was quite some time ago and I intended to use them in an ereader that I had at the time. Black and white only, so not too useful. On the iPad, they would work much better, but i haven't tried it out. The cutting and scanning is quite time consuming. Starting from scratch nowadays, I would check out Eroski and do a search for other possible new sources.

But after a lot of fiddling around, I began to catch on and started climbing up the steep learning curve. I wasn't able to find much in the application by way of instructions, but eventually learned what I needed to do. The end result was complete maps, with the routes and all the waypoints from published lists, of the Sarria to SdeC section and the Aragonés route from Oloron to Puente la Reina. I did not need it when I recently did the Sarria-SdeC bit, but I checked out a lot of stuff along the way just to get used to using it. It was time consuming to enter all the data that I wanted, but I was happy with the results and felt that it was worth the effort.
