Herbergslignende overnatning
På nogle strækninger af Hærvejsruten er der stor afstand mellem herbergerne og det kan være vanskeligt at finde overnatningsmuligheder for vandrere der går ca. 24 km om dagen. Oversigten med herberger er derfor suppleret med 8 andre overnatningstilbud som ikke har det samme koncept for overnatning som flertallet af herberger.
Overnatningsstederne i form af vandrehjem, campingpladser, hytter og B&B er vist sammen med herbergerne på nedenstående oversigt og kort som dækker hele Hærvejen fra nord til syd.
