Hi folks, I am a first timer and with three weeks freed up I plan to walk from Coimbra to Santiago. I will be doing it alone in July. Can anyone advise if I can get a credencial in Coimbra and is it advisable to advance book for the stages before Porto? Thanks. This site is most useful.

Hola Noel
Funnily enough someone asked the same question only a few weeks ago. You won't get a Credencial in Coimbra - where are you flying into? If it is Oporto you will get on in the Cathedral and similarly in Lisboa.
There won't be many other pilgrims so booking may not be necessary but is perhaps advisable a day ahead or so?
Regards
John

Noel - the only thing that will be "counted" towards getting the Compostela, if that is important to you, is the last 100 kms from Santiago. If where you start is farther than that then collecting sellos is a good way of remembering your journey. A credencial is needed if you wish to use albergues along the way.
