I'm here and still have two weeks left after I finish the English Way tomorrow.
Does anyone know if you can start the Primitive (at Lugo) following it to where it joins the Frances, then bus back to Sarria on the Francés and walking back to the where the Primitive joins the CF and finish up...
Most of us use gronze for its up to date information on routes, stages, accommodations, etc, but they also routinely publish write-ups about a variety of topics.
Today, I ran across one that lists the 21 certificates you can get on the Camino along with two that you can’t get. It’s done in...
Hey there, I am completing my first camino frances from Saint Jean Pied de Port by foot and unfortunately realized 500km in that I needed to get one stamp a day. I had been collecting stamps sporadically something like 1 every 2-3 days. Thankfully, I am over the 100km mark still so I can start...
Just looking at my credential del Peregrino and I see you have to register. Can I register anytime before I walk or wait until the first day of walk? I'm assuming I just use the QR code to register!
Two dear friends who completed the Camino Frances with me very sadly suffered a house fire last year. The entire contents of their home were lost. Does anyone know if there is any way to obtain replacement compestelas for them please?
Hello!
I’m starting my Camino soon (having never done anything like it before) and I wanted to check, do I need to bring anything/ register anywhere first in order to get my Pilgrim Passport in Saint Jean?
Thank you :)
I've been a bit over eager to obtain stamps and I'm not sure I will have enough, especially after Sarria.
What options are there for getting either a new one or additional pages. Also, where would I obtain them.
Thanks in advance for your help.
Buen Camino
Hi all. Me and my wife are starting our Camino tomorrow. We have pre-registered for our credentials and my wife has received her QR code but I have not despite sending mine yesterday and also tried again today. If I don’t receive it before going to Porto cathedral today what will they do ...
Hello I wonder if anyone can help. I have an unused Holy Year Passport, unused. I am walking again this year and wondered if there is an issue using this passport or do I need to get another one?
Thanks for any assistance.

We went to the Santuario de La Peregrino today to get half way certificate in Sahagun. We paid our entry fees and loved the beautiful museum - on exiting we needed to ask for the stamp, which was given. There was however, no certificates in sight, we returned a few hours later to request the...
Hi everyone,
I'm on the Camino Frances and I started from León. I just realised that I was meant to double stamp on the last 100km. I thought this was just for those only doing the last 100km, which was a silly misunderstanding.
I have 40km (2 days left) so will do it from now on, but will I...
Hi I will be starting the Portuguese coastal from Porto 31st of September. Do I sign my pilgrim passport prior to getting it stamped in Porto cathedral.
First Camino so it's all new to me.
Seamus.
Buen camino
How do you get the camino stamp in Portugal if you occasionally travel or stay off-stage? I will be going on my first camino in April, 2024 along the Camino Portugues, starting from Lisbon. I searched on the forum, and unless I missed it, my question has not been previously posted.
Hola everyone! I’m starting my 1st full Camino Frances journey on Sept 2, and I’m nervously excited!
I’ve been reading so many great and helpful hints from everyone on this forum and (think) I’m ready to go!
I did have a question about the Vicari Pro. Although I’m walking this Camino for...
Hi there, we are starting the Portuguese coastal Camino on Sept 1 in Porto. Can someone tell me location of Cathedral where we can register for the Camino and get our passport and first stamp? Thanks
It was my understand that you must walk the entire last 100 kilometers to Santiago to get the Compostela and that it must be done in one trip. But now someone says you can do it in consecutive trips at different times. Is that true???
Nevermind... I found the answer on the Pilgrim Office Page...
I’m waking the Primitivo next month and will arrive in Oviedo late, starting my Camino early the next day. Is it a requirement to have a sello from the starting point of your Camino? I already have my credentials. Thanks, Fiona
