2023. Finish the VDLP. Zamora to Santiago.
Hello
Can anyone tell me if there is a regular service for transporting backpacks on the VDLP from Seville please.
I have a back injury and may need to have some relief on the way.
Thanks and regards

Ideal sleeping bag liner whether we want to add a thermal plus to our bag, or if we want to use it alone to sleep in shelters or hostels. Thanks to its mummy shape, it adapts perfectly to our body.

€46,-
I walked in autumn last year and there was no regular service then. Some people chose to send their luggage ahead by taxi but that had to be organized on a day-to-day basis. An expensive business unless you can share with other pilgrims. It is a very different experience from the Camino Frances in lots of ways.
 
Perfect memento/gift in a presentation box. Engraving available, 25 character max.
I am on vdlp right now and can confirm that the Mochila service with Correo starts in Ourense.

Want to add that surprisingly this route is already crowded. Have met so many pilgrims who walk here to avoid crowd but ended up with a crowd. Albergues fill up every night so far.

Also, due to recent heavy rains in the area, many flooded creeks can get your boots wet. A few detours will add to your distance.

Buen Camino.

Mark,
The Spanish Post Office, Correos, now offer this service - I used it last year on the Camino Ingles (as my father is 86 years old) and they were first class.

Buen Camino
Thank you Guy
I have looked at the site and see they offer the service on the Sanabres route; not from Seville.
Appreciate your information as I see they offer the same service on many more popular Camino routes.
Impressed that your father was able to do the Camino Ingles at 86; I am 74 and wonder how many more I have in me
Buen Camino
HappyMark
