    Hi, we’re planning walk Camino from Ourense to Santiago, and should we get the first stamp in Ourense ( the beginning point)? And just get the first one on the road?

    Last leg of Camino Franćes.

    Hi! I travelled the Franćes last year from St. Jean pied de Port. I got as far as Portomarin before I fell and broke my hand. My question is: When I go back this year to finish, must I start in Sarria or may I start in Portomarin to receive my Compostela Certificate?

Starting to worry about doing that much walking. If we got too tired say by 20K - could we taxi to Santiago - stay the night because I already have...
  7. Seals/stamps/ sellos directory.

    Wise Pilgrim or whichever app needs a seal/stamp locator function with preview images. Albergues are a given, but it’d be cool to know which other places have seals or even what they look like, like a map overlay.

    Unconventional route in Picos de Europa - Sellos possible?

    I plan to cycle a bit of an unconventional route, from Santander but cutting south through the Picos de Europa mountains (I'm a glutton for punishment), and only partially overlapping with the Camino Primitivo/Norte. I'll be camping most of the time and will carry all my stuff with me...

    I had to discontinue my Camino at Frómista due to injuries. Can I still get my certificate/diploma when I get to Santiago another time/year if I pick up from where I left? Will it be the same certificate as if I hade done the Camino in one go, or is there anything I need to do?
