    Zubiri hazardous path

    Is Novellana on this route? I’m walking from Santiago to Muxía and then on to Finesterre.

    Lires is the only town (that I know of) between the two. I stayed in the hotel Liresca one year and it was very nice. https://liresca.com/

    Progress tracker for myself and family

    As I mentioned in the other thread, I use Find Penguins. I like how it creates a map of my Camino as I go. When you click on one of the places it takes you to the day's blog post. https://findpenguins.com/
