It's more than a souvenir. It gives you an official status of pilgrim
thus entitling you to use hospitality of so called Albergues
which are special hostels made only for pilgrims carrying such passport.
Majority of the stamps are received at Albergues,
others at different stops like churches or even bars (a bar is an equivalent
for cafeteria).
Map
The following is planned out Camino Frances divided into 34 stages,
each stage representing one day of walking, 23 Kms on average totalling 781,7 Kms.
This particular Camino starts in Saint Jean Pied de Port in France with finish
in Santiago de Compostela in Spain.
The roadmap also shows changes in altitude and terrain throughout different stages.
The length of daily walk is only a recommendation by The Camino office
and the division of the whole Camino into different stages is up to individual's
possibilities and motivation.
