What's Inside the App
Real data from the app — this is what you get offline.
Roncesvalles
25 km from start · 952 m elevation

Camino FrancésAlbergue Municipal de Pontevedra

Large municipal albergue in the heart of historic Pontevedra. One of the best-value albergues on the Portuguese Way.
MunicipalVillage Fountain, Olveiroa

Water sourceSaint-Jean-Pied-de-Port
Camino Francés · Stage 1
For nine centuries, pilgrims have squeezed through the Porte Saint-Jacques — the last French gate before the Pyrenees. Medieval kings, Franciscan friars, and Charlemagne's soldiers all began the same climb from this Navarrese frontier town.

Verified at April 2026
259 waypoints · 703 lodging entries · 114 points of interest · across 18 routes in 10 languages — all offline.
No internet neededEvery stop has a story
We spent months writing the history behind each waypoint. Not just a dot on a timeline, but nine centuries of pilgrims, emperors, and stonecutters who walked the same path. Here's a taste.
Camino Francés (French Way)
Saint-Jean-Pied-de-Port
For nine centuries, pilgrims have squeezed through the Porte Saint-Jacques, the last French gate before the Pyrenees. Medieval kings, Franciscan friars, and Charlemagne's soldiers all began the same climb from this Navarrese frontier town, today the most-used Camino starting point in the world.
Kumano Nakahechi (Middle Route)
Takijiri-oji
One of the Five Major Oji and sacred gateway to the Kumano pilgrimage. Imperial purification rituals were performed here. Stamp stand in front of Kumano Kodo-kan, beside entrance.
The full prose for every waypoint lives inside the app.
A quiet labor of love for fellow pilgrims
Sacred Trails started with a simple frustration: phone-dependent pilgrim apps stop working when you lose signal in the mountains. We wanted something that walked with you, not one that needed constant Wi-Fi to stay useful.
So we spent months: mapping every stage, writing the story of every waypoint across 10 languages, verifying lodging, stamping practices, and the small practical details that make a difference on a hard afternoon. 18 routes. Thousands of waypoints. No ads, no subscription, no data collection.
If what we built helps your pilgrimage, the app is free to download with route packs available for the trails you plan to walk — Camino Essentials, Camino Complete, Japan Pilgrimage, or All Routes Lifetime. No subscription, no ads. Buen Camino.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does Sacred Trails work offline?
Yes. All route content including waypoints, stages, lodging, and POIs is bundled in the app. No internet connection is required on the trail, and no map tiles need to be downloaded.
How many pilgrimage routes are included?
Sacred Trails covers 18 routes: 12 Camino routes (Francés, Portugués, Portugués Coastal, Norte, Primitivo, Inglés, Vía de la Plata, Invierno, Fisterra-Muxía, Le Puy, Mozárabe, San Salvador), 4 Kumano Kodo routes (Nakahechi, Kohechi, Ohechi, Iseji), the Shikoku 88-Temple Henro, and the Saigoku 33 Kannon Pilgrimage.
How much does Sacred Trails cost?
Sacred Trails is free to download. Route content is available through route packs: Camino Essentials, Camino Complete, Japan Pilgrimage, or All Routes Lifetime. Each is a one-time purchase — no subscription and no ads.
Which languages are supported?
Sacred Trails is fully localized in 10 languages: English, Japanese, Spanish, Traditional Chinese, Simplified Chinese, Korean, French, German, Portuguese, and Italian. Interface, route descriptions, waypoint names, and POI labels are all translated.
Do I need a GPS signal or cellular data?
Neither. The stage timeline does not depend on GPS or network. You read the next stage, landmarks, and lodging from the bundled data even in deep mountain sections with zero signal.
Is there a traditional map view?
Sacred Trails uses a Stage Timeline rather than a scroll-and-pan map. Each route is broken into clearly defined stages with distances, elevations, cumulative mileage, lodging clusters, and key waypoints — the information pilgrims actually use day to day.
Can I plan for more than one route?
Yes. Many pilgrims walk the Camino Francés one year and the Kumano Kodo the next. Sacred Trails is built for that kind of multi-route pilgrim — choose the route pack that fits your journey, or get All Routes Lifetime for full access.
How often is content updated?
Route data is reviewed regularly and shipped through standard App Store updates. Waypoint corrections, lodging changes, and new POIs are rolled into app updates at no extra cost.
Does it work on iPad?
Yes. Sacred Trails runs on iPhone and iPad with iOS 16.0 or later. The stage timeline adapts to larger screens with multi-column layouts.
Is there an Android version?
The Android release is in Google Play preparation. The same offline route data, stamps, and cloud backup flow are being prepared for Android users.
