This Handbook provides the pilgrim to be all the information he or she needs to make a pilgrimage to Santiago de Compostela. More than one hundred detailed maps will guide the pilgrim along the way, together will route descriptions, lists of Albergues, hotels, medical centers and numerous other services. The book contains update information regarding the French Road (from Roncesvalles onward), the Primitive Road (from Oviedo), the Northern Road (from Irún), the Aragonese Road (from Somport) and the road which leads pilgrims from Santiago to Finisterra and Muxía.

     An entire chapter is dedicated to the necessary preparations to be made in order to arrive safely at the cathedral in Santiago. Many do's and don't are discussed. How about the pilgrim who walked with a backpack weighing 85 pounds? Do I stay overnight in the albergues, or do I go to a hotel? What does it cost to make a pilgrimage? Where do I start, and when?

     The quick lesson of basic Spanish which also features in this book will get the (future) pilgrim in the right mood. All the information has been obtained from veteran pilgrims who walked the roads for more than 10 years. A qualified medical doctor has written the medical section of this book. The book is updated weekly on various websites, and is supported by a large Support Team of veteran pilgrims
