I didn’t know there were so many different routes. The various paths go through area rich in history, landscapes & architecture. Make me want to go.

прекрасно ілюстрована розповідь про різні відомі маршрути, які ведуть до Сантьяго де Компостела, кожен етап розказує, чого очікувати мандрівнику, де зупинитися та що спробувати на шляху. також є коротка історія та практичні поради як підготуватися до подорожі. дуже рекомендую!

I wish I'd had this book before I walked the Camino. It explains in detail a number of the different routes. Photos and tips are great.
