Credential for El Norte ?

Colette Z

Happy Pilgrim
Time of past OR future Camino
CF; Norte; Ingles; Augustine; Portugues Central
Is there a credential specific to the Norte Camino (eg. Cover page says C del Norte)? I Winterthuru be able to get my credential in Irun as the pilgrims office is only open Wednesday evenings in February. What are my options to get a credential given I’ll travel to,Spain Feb 26th? Thanks.
 
The one from Galicia (the round) and the one from Castilla & Leon. Individually numbered and made by the same people that make the ones you see on your walk.
I don't think there are Camino specific credentials. I got mine when I purchased the Wise Pilgrim guide from Ivar.
 
We got credentials from the albergue in Irun. They also had shells available for a donation.

Thanks @norlle do you remember the Albergue name or do,you refer to the Municipal?
Hi Colette,
Yes, it was the municipal. 'Hospital de perigrinos de Irun'. Calle Lucas de Berra 18.
The credentials weren't specific to the Norte and I didn't see any that were along the way.
I see you're from Slovakia.
When I walked the Norte October 2016, I walked for a few weeks with a pilgrim from Slovakia! It is a beautiful way.
Buen Camino!

Good I’ll order one here from IVAR. I’m Canadian but spend winters/springs in Slovakia, which is a huge convenience for cheap travel to and from Spain. Thanks again.

I use Alltrails a lot here in the US, in Iceland, on the Via Podiensis and a bit on the CF. Will it be useful on the Norte? For example, people here say the "warm up" from Biarritz to Irun (or...
