También, el de multiplicar la importancia que muchos le dan a conseguir la Compostela (certificado de peregrinación a Santiago para el que tan solo hace falta haber recorrido los últimos cien kilómetros a pie), para dar valor a quienes hacen centenares e incluso miles de kilómetros para llegar a la ciudad gallega.

"Debemos potenciar ese camino completo, largo, con todo lo que significa hacer ese camino", ha explicado Maya, un argumento que ha refrendado el alcalde de Burgos y vicepresidente de la Asociación de Municipios del Camino de Santiago, Daniel de la Rosa, quien ha señalado que correspondería a las asociaciones del Camino y a la diócesis de Santiago esta certificación diferenciada.

Como ejemplo, ha avanzado que podría ser "una Compostela de Oro, de Plata, de Bronce, dependiendo de si has empezado en Sarria, Burgos o en los Pirineos. Creo que hay que reconocer, poner en valor y demostrarlo, a aquellos que han hecho un camino desde 2.000 kilómetros y no los últimos cien", algo que además daría valor a las localidades que no están en Galicia.

Por otro lado, Enrique Maya ha avanzado otras ideas antes de la reunión, la primera su deseo de dar la importancia que merece al Camino de Santiago francés, y el interés de los pequeños municipios de la Ruta Jacobea, para quienes el paso de los peregrinos "lo es casi todo desde el punto de vista económico".


My impression is that these would be differentiations in format only, but with the same basic, traditional Latin text.

Perhaps this should be merged with the original thread ( https://www.caminodesantiago.me/com...-for-pilgrims-walking-longer-distances.79970/ ), and reopen it ?
