Astorga, being a large city, will certainly have a good supply of taxis.

Astorga, being a relatively large place, will certainly have a good supply of taxis. Rome2Rio lists the fare at $65-80. That seems rather excessive for a 17 mile ride. You might be able to negotiate. Maybe the hotel right on the main square could assist you with this.

I would assume that quote is based on the distance there and back. Very little chance the driver can pick up a paying passenger for the return journey. A little over 50km.

True, but still worth trying to negotiate
 
thanks for your inputs so far... Yes I will negotiate ... I am having a brain gap, but what is the Cross where people leave rocks/thoughts/memories/pains etc. called... ? Thanks

Yes, I took a taxi last Sept from Astoria to Foncebadon. Took the train to Astorga, walked up the long hill to where the Camino leaves Astoria, went into a cafe on the left and had them call me a taxi to Foncebaden. It was about a 40-60 minute trip in mountains and think it was 35E and gave him 40. Loved Foncebaden.
