[QUOTE="peregrina2000, post: 1027570, member: 537"] I have heard from Ender about the requirements for the Olvidada. They are trying to keep it as infomal as possible and are hoping that they won’t have to get in the business of policing pilgrim credentials. There is no km minimum, but the Olvidada will only be given out in Villafranca del Bierzo, the “official” end. Part of the thinking here must be to encourage pilgrims to continue from Congosto to Cabañas Raras (20 km), where there is acogida for pilgrims, and then on to Villafranca on the Francés. I know that many, probably the overwhelming majority, “drop down” from Congosto to Ponferrada. If you do that, you won’t be able to get the Olvidada. It is available in the tourist office. If you are going to arrive on a Sunday, when the tourist office is closed, you should call the Ayuntamiento on a weekday before arrival to arrange for picking up your Olvidada. 987 54 00 89 Here is a picture of the mayor giving the Olvidada to a recent peregrina.
