Camino Frances (August 2017)
Hi all,
Ill be starting my first Camino in Sauveterre on Friday (4thAugust) and have just realised that I'll need the pilgrim passport to stay at the Auberges. Can I get this in Sauveterre? And if so how/where?
Thanks in advance for your advice & assistance!

Ideal sleeping bag liner whether we want to add a thermal plus to our bag, or if we want to use it alone to sleep in shelters or hostels. Thanks to its mummy shape, it adapts perfectly to our body.

€46,-
Try the Office de Tourisme. I have been through twice, but never needed anything more than food and beverage, so I have no personal knowledge on finding a credential that close to SJPdP. Good luck.
 
Thanks so much for your suggestion. I've sent them an email.
If worst comes to worst I can stay in a B&B for the nights before I reach SJPdP (can't I?) gulp!

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.
For completeness I include this (translated) response from the Office de Tourisme in Sauveterre:
"The Tourist Office of Sauveterre stamps credentials but does not sell them. You may be able to buy them in Orthez (upstream) or St Jean Pied de Port."
Hope others find this useful.
Regards all!
