- Planning for Leon to Santiago June 2019
Hi! Some advice please...
1. I fly into Madrid, stay one night and my travel agent is booking on the train from Madrid to Leon and into a posh hotel in Leon, which seems a little unnecessary, so I was wondering what recommendations people might have of where to stay in Leon the night before I start walking? I would like a good nights sleep so thinking my own room somewhere central but does not need to be fancy. I won't be jetlagged as I am coming from Australia but via a stay in Italy.
2. Will I be able to pick up my credencial that afternoon at the Cathedral? Or can I organise that now from Australia somehow? I would visit the Cathedral anyway that day assuming my train arrives in time (but I don't have that info yet).
3. I can only manage 15km a day....but it looks like the first accomodation options are more like 22km out of Leon. Any suggestions?
Thank you!
