Passport

[Batru]

Dear All

many of the sites state that the passport must be stamped each day in France and twice daily in Spain. What happens if you take a day break or cannot travel for a few days? Might that stop the granting of a Compostela?

Best wishes

Only requirement is twice daily last hundred km. Burn Camino

Yeah it's only the last 100km, stamped twice to make sure you have actually walked, i.e. you haven't taken a bus or taxi... Here's an extended discussion/ explanation:

That does not preclude you from taking a day off, you don't have to walk every single day but it wouldn't be a bad idea to collect two stamps each day from a bar, cafe, restaurant or hostel just to put your mind at ease.

Only when you walk the last 100km you need 2 stamps a day .Buen Camino, Peter.

Good morning everyone,

This is a seperate but related question to the one raised above:

Does anyone know what hours the Pilgrim's office in SJPdP operate? I arrive late on Monday (19:30) and want to hit the road asap Tuesday as I cannot get a bed in Orisson. Any info would be gratefully received, so thank you.


Very best,

Jamie
