B'nei Yisrael stopped at 42 different locations between Mitzraim and Eretz Yisrael, but only by some of them do we have a Mesorah as to what happened. I might fill in a few more later.
- Sukkot - B'nei Yisrael are joined by the Erev Rav on the way to Sukkot (Shemot 12:37-38)
- Eitam
- Pi HaChirot
- Marah
- Eilim - There were 12 springs and 70 date trees (Shemot 16)
- Yam Suf
- Midbar Sin
- Dofkah
- Alush - They received the Man (Ba'al HaTurim 33:13)
- Refidim - The war with Amalek (Shemot 17:8)
- Midbar Sinai - Maamad Har Sinai, Chet HaEigel
- Kivrot HaTa'avah - Recounted in BaMidbar chapter 11, includes the mitzvah to Moshe to appoint a Sanhedrin.
- Chatzeirot - Lashon HaRa of Miriam (BaMidbar 12)
- Ritmah - Sin of the Spies (Rashi to BaMidbar 33:18), Ma'apilim
- Rimon Paretz
- Livnah
- Risah
- Keheilatah - Ma'aseh Korach (Ba'al HaTurim to BaMidbar 33:22)
- Har Shefer
- Charadah
- Makheilot - Ba'al HaTurim also relates this to Korach (per the girsah I have here), but perhaps it is referring to chapter 17:6 onwards, which is the day after Ma'aseh Korach.
- Tachat
- Tarach
- Mitkah
- Chashmonah - The 25th stop is Chashmonah, like Chashmonaim, hinting at Chanukah.
- Moseirot
- B'nei Ya'akan
- Chor HaGidgad
- Yotvatah - Devarim 10:8 says that at that time, Hashem separated the tribe of Levi for its work. According to (if I recall correctly) Rashi, this happened earlier, but the placement of this statement by this Tachanah nonetheless is relevant here.
- Evronah
- Etzyon Gaver
- Kadesh - Death of Miriam, Moshe hits the rock (Bamidbar 20)
- Hor HaHar - Death of Aharon, war with Melech Arad
- Tzalmonah
- Punon
- Ovot
- Iyei HaAvarim
- Divon Gad
- Almon Divlataymah
- Harei HaAvarim
- Arvot Moav - Maaseh Ba'al Pe'or (Bamidbar 25)
- Har Nevo - Death of Moshe (Devarim 34)
