Camino Passports

[Anjelee56]

I am traveling the Camino with 2 grandkids during the month of October. We are starting in Leon and I was told we could obtain our camino passports in Leon? Is this true and where might we go to obtain them?
Thank you !

Yes it is true. In Leon you can obtain a Credencial or Pilgrim passport at the
Albergue del convento de las Carbajalas, plaza Santa Maria de Camino. Here is their listing on Gronze . You need not stay there in order to obtain a Credencial. Open all year the hours are 11 am to 10 pm. Their location is in the center city close to the cathedral. Check the Gronze list re additional Leon spots which also offer the Credencial .


Buen camino!
