The Seis Caminos de Santiago app

It installs from the browser itself, with no app store. It is small, and whatever you have opened stays available without coverage.

Membership

There is nothing to pay if you are walking. The only membership is for businesses on the Camino.

The whole guide and all its services are free for pilgrims, and they are staying that way: the routes, the stages, the credencial, the scroll, the offline maps, the diary and the bed alerts. There is no wall and there is not going to be one.

Free

The whole guide, free and forever. And your business, on the map.

Free

  • All 7 routes and their 164 stages
  • Distance, elevation and difficulty of every stage

For pilgrims

If you are going to walk, there is nothing to pay: the whole guide and all its services come with a free account.

For businesses on the Camino

If you have a hostel, a bar or a shop on the route. Being in the guide is free and needs no sign-up: the membership is for running the listing yourself.

Find my place in the guide

Membership does not get you into the guide: you are already in it. What you pay for is running the listing yourself, and what that adds is on the cards beside this one.

For the houses on the Way

A free year of the Professional plan for your house

The Professional plan puts your house’s listing in your hands and brings the sticker for your door and the shell that pilgrims scan to stamp their parchment: every stamp carries your name, your village and your kilometre point.

Sign in to redeem the code.

Create the free account

  • Each code works once and once only.
  • No card is asked for and nothing renews on its own. When the year is up it ends and you decide: your house goes back to the free plan unless you want to carry on.
  • It is for the houses on the Way, so you need to hold your listing in the guide. Claiming it or adding it is free.

What to know before you pay

  • There is nothing paid for pilgrims. Everything this guide does — the credencial, the scroll, the offline maps, the GPX track, the diary and the bed alerts — comes with the free account.
  • The guide carries our own advertising and everyone sees it, including the business paying for membership. That is what lets the pilgrim pay nothing.
  • Offline maps are saved on your own phone, stage by stage or the whole route, and stay there even when we update the app. They take up space on the phone; you can delete them whenever you like from the same stage.
  • Free-bed alerts are fed by the members themselves: the hostel keeper from their panel, signed as the house, and the pilgrim who has just phoned. We do not book beds and cannot guarantee them; call before counting on one. A report only counts for the day it is given.
  • Prices are shown before VAT, as is usual between businesses: VAT is added at checkout, and you will see the full breakdown before confirming anything.
  • Payments are processed by PayPal, with your PayPal account or a card. We never store your card details.

The whole guide. The 7 routes, the 164 stages with their profile and their services, the towns, the hostels, the prices and the reviews. It asks for nothing, not even an account.

Before you set off

  • The 7 routes Each route with its kilometres, its stages, how hard it is and the map of all 7 together.
  • Every stage in full From where to where, how much you climb, how much you drop and everything along the way, kilometre by kilometre.
  • The profile with the services on it The elevation drawing with every bar, every hostel and every fountain at its exact kilometre.
  • The stretches with nothing Where there are ten, fifteen or twenty kilometres with no water and no food. No other guide works this out.
  • Which route do I take? You type the days you have and the kilometres you walk a day, and it tells you which ones fit whole.
  • What does the Camino cost? What sleeping, eating and washing clothes cost, with the prices the places publish themselves.
  • When to go The year month by month with our own data: how many beds open in February and how many hours of daylight there are.
  • Getting there and getting back How to reach the start of each route and how to get home from the end.
  • The preparation guides What you need to know before setting off and does not fit on a stage page.
  • The weight of your pack What to put in and what it really weighs, added up for you against your own weight.
  • The words you need What you have to be able to say on the Camino, in your language and in Spanish.
  • Where the routes split When a stage ends in two, it says so, with the kilometres and the days on each side.
  • The search box A town, a stage, a hostel — or what you are after: "washing machine", "blisters", "budget".
  • A page for every town Roncesvalles, Astorga or Melide: what is there, which stage it falls on and how far from Santiago.
  • Hostels, bars, shops and services All of them on the Camino, by group and by town, with what we have checked about each one.
  • Filter by what a place has Washing machine, dogs welcome, step-free, bike storage, a room without bunks, stamps your credential.
  • What each place charges The bed, the set menu, the washing machine: what each one charges, published by the place itself.
  • Which months it opens Half the hostels do not open all year. It says which and when — and when we do not know.
  • The reviews What other pilgrims say, with the owner's reply when there is one.

While you walk

  • The weather for the stage The forecast for the stretch you are going to walk, not for the provincial capital.
  • The fountain reports Whether the fountain at kilometre twelve had water yesterday, because someone said so on the way past.
  • The stage noticeboard Fallen arrows, roadworks, mud, loose dogs and closures. What there is today and may not be tomorrow.
  • Tips from people who walked it The things that do not expire: where the fountain actually is, which bar opens at six. Free to read.
  • The Camino today Today’s bed, water and noticeboard reports from every route, together. The one page that changes on its own each morning.
  • Lost and found The ones from every route together, not buried in the stage where they were reported.
  • Emergencies on the stage 112, the pharmacies and the health centres that fall on your way.
  • What is closed today The local holidays of the district you are crossing, which is what decides whether there is bread.
  • Mass and the pilgrim blessing At what time and in which church, with the date it was checked.
  • How to get out of here The bus, the train or the taxi from the end of the stage, for the day you cannot carry on.
  • Backpack transfer Who carries it from one stage to the next, what they charge and up to what weight.
  • Call from the list The phone number and the WhatsApp in the list itself, without opening each page.
  • Whether there is room today Today's report from each hostel: room, nearly full or full.
  • It’s full: where there are still beds When a hostel says «full», the places further on that reported beds today, with their phone number.

Arriving in Santiago

  • Arriving in Santiago The Pilgrim Office, the Compostela, the mass and what to do with the last day.

If you run a place on the Camino

  • Your place is already there With the public data we could gather, without signing up, without paying, and in 18 languages.

The guide from the inside

  • 18 languages The whole guide, not a translated menu: every route, every stage and every notice in your language.
  • Install it as an app It installs on Android, iPhone and desktop from the browser itself, with no app store.
  • It works without coverage Whatever you opened before is still there when there is no signal, which is half the meseta.
  • Light or dark At ten at night in the dormitory, or in the sun on the meseta.
  • The free account Free forever, no card and no trial days. It is the one that opens the services.

And how to use each one, in the manual

Free account

With the free account

The services that do something FOR YOU: they place you with your GPS, they answer you, they keep your trip, they write under your name. It is free forever, no card and no trial days.

Before you set off

  • Ask anything A question written in your language about the Camino or about the guide, answered on the spot.
  • Your own itinerary Your days, not the book's: you choose where you sleep each night and the guide recalculates.
  • What YOUR trip costs The budget for your days and your dates, not for some average trip.
  • What it actually cost Log the day in thirty seconds. In time, «what does the Camino cost» is answered with the real median instead of an estimate.

  • Your trip in your phone's calendar An .ics file with your days so the phone reminds you.

  • Your itinerary as GPX Your own days, cut where you sleep, for the watch or the GPS.

While you walk

  • Today mode You open the guide and today's walk is there, not an index to hunt through.
  • The companion It crosses where you are with the time, the daylight left, the water ahead and what the board says. Three things at most, the most urgent first.
  • Where am I? The phone says where you are and the guide answers how far is left and where the next fountain is.
  • Report whether the fountain ran Two taps as you pass. It is what makes tomorrow’s report worth anything.
  • Leave a tip Write one and vote on other people’s. With the free account.
  • Post on the board You tell what you have just seen and save it for whoever passes tomorrow.
  • Report an item What you have lost or what you have found, with how to reach you.
  • Say how the beds are You have just called or walked past: you say it and save it for the one behind you.
  • Ask for a bed without phoning Two people, tonight, arriving around six. The host answers yes or no and you get the alert. It is not a booking: nothing is paid and nobody is bound.
  • Translate what people write A notice written in German, translated into your language with one tap.
  • Correct a listing A phone number that changed, a hostel that closed. You correct it and it is on the record.
  • Write a review Say how it went, with the date of your visit.
  • Say what the route was like Your experience of the whole route, with the month and year you walked it.
  • Was this review any use? The ones that help rise; the ones that do not, sink.
  • Write to the hostel Ask whether there is a bed left, without their email being published anywhere.

  • Save what matters to you Stages and hostels marked so you find them again without searching.
  • Stamp with the QR You scan the code on the door and the stage is stamped in your credential.
  • Your digital credential Every stamp of the trip, with the date and the place of each one.
  • The Compostela counter How many of the hundred kilometres you have done and from which town you have to stamp twice a day.
  • Your real pace and the daylight What time you actually arrive, at your pace and not at some invented average.
  • The itinerary corrects itself If you have been walking at a different pace than planned, the itinerary says so and re-cuts with one button.
  • The night-before warning The night before, what you need to know about tomorrow: heat, rain, a dry stretch or a notice on the board.
  • Alerts on your phone The warnings reach the phone even with the guide closed.
  • The trip diary One page per stage with what you walked, when, and what you wrote down.
  • Free-bed alerts When someone says there is room on the stage you are heading for, it reaches you.
  • The pocket translator Text and a photo of a sign, in all six directions.
