credenciales on the Via de la Plata.

[Patricio83]

Hola Peregrinos
A friend of mine has just started on the Via from Sevilla and has no credencial, he says he is in a town called Guilla (or somethiong similar, just outside Sevilla). He has been told that he wont be able to get one until Salamanca or if he goes back to Sevilla. Surely there must be somewhere soon after Sevilla and before Salamanca where he can get one.

Any help would be great.

Hi!

Should be able to secure one in Guillena itself or in Castilblanco, which is the next stop on his route.

Wish him a pleasant walk,
Jean-Marc

I pplan to start walking the Via de la Plata around September 10. Does anyone know if it is possible to obtain a credencial from any source before I leave for Spain?

Larry, if you live in the U.S., contact American Pilgrims on the Camino at http://www.americanpilgrims.com/ and they'll send you a credencial free.
