The Confraternity of Saint James was founded in 1983 to bring together those interested in the medieval pilgrim routes through Spain and France to the tomb of St James at Santiago de Compostela, and in the associated rich heritage of art, architecture, history, music and faith. The CSJ has an office, bookshop and library in central London close to Blackfriars Bridge.
Publisher's Information 2026
All the changes since the previous edition (2024) have been incorporated into this update. This includes:
several new interesting optional alternative routes
where to find the latest pilgrim stamps
the addition of Camino milestones (“mouteira” in Galician) in Reading, Winchester and Southampton
improved starting instructions and advice for a Camino that starts in England to Santiago de Compostela
and, although a simple change, the footer on each facing pages gives the section/stage, making it easier orientate through the guide
