Map waypoints and tracks

Lodging waypoints on the interactive map above shown as Hotels (teal bed symbol on map) only have private rooms. Those shown as Albergues (red A symbol on map) are more pilgrim-oriented and have dormitory beds, often also with private rooms (click waypoints on map for details).

This track (or multiple tracks if alternates exist) follows the marked Camino de Santiago route which is primarily for hikers, but also used by cyclists in the direction towards Santiago. Stage routes and waypoints correspond to the print and Kindle guidebooks by Village to Village Press.
