I will be arriving in Leon on Tuesday 27/6/2023. I am looking for a place to get a Pilgrim passport near the train station. I intend to start walking upon arrival, so as close to train station as possible.
Technical backpack for day trips with backpack cover and internal compartment for the hydration bladder. Ideal daypack for excursions where we need a medium capacity backpack. The back with Air Flow System creates large air channels that will keep our back as cool as possible.
The first edition came out in 2003 and has become the go-to-guide for many pilgrims over the years. It is shipping with a Pilgrim Passport (Credential) from the cathedral in Santiago de Compostela.
According to Gronze.com several of the albergues in town issue credencials - "expiden la credencial" in the albergue details. Check out their addresses on the website: https://www.gronze.com/etapa/leon/san-martin-camino
I know the Convent and Albergue Asia both have them but that is going backward. I was hoping someone new of a place near or west of the tren estacion. I want to start walking upon arrival.
There is also an ‘amigos’ group from whom I have a credenciale. I’m sure they’re online but if I remember correctly it was a slightly difficult and time-limited opportunity.
