No. One will do, especially as you are walking continuously to Santiago. A lot of pilgrims, myself included walk via several linked routes.Hi everyone!
I'm planning to start on the Camino de Francés, then from Léon I will walk the Camino San Salvador, then the Camino Primitivo and maybe if I have time the Camino de Fisterra.
My question is, do I need sperate pilgrim passports for the 4 Caminos?
Who can know something you don’t ? It seems impossible.I was wondering if @Pafayac knows something I don’t
Yes I would like the compostella in Santiago and also the certificate in Oviado and Finisterre. I would like to have all the stamps in one credentian if its possible, if it will fit.OP, the reason you're getting different answers is because you haven't indicated what your goals are.
Do you want access to pilgrim albergues? You only need one, or enough to hold all the stamps.
Do you want a Compostela? Again, you only need enough to hold all the stamps, including 2 a day for the last hundred km on a recognized Camino. The Compostela does not mention the route you took, nor the distance you covered.
Do you want a distance certificate? Different people have reported different experiences with the Pilgrim's Office on what route and distance is ultimately recorded, but, again, you only need as many credentials as you need to hold the stamps.
Do you want the special certificates for completing the Salvador (Salvadorana), or the Muxiana/ Finisterrana ( not sure of spelling) ? I *suppose * you could use any credential, but I suspect it's easier on the people issuing the Salvadorana if you used the specific one issued in Léon. Remember that you obtain the Salvadorana in Oviedo, the Muxiana in Muxia, etc.
Clarify your goals, and you'll get tailored advice
While I'll let those who have collected Salvadorana and the Finisterre certificates comment on whether they obtained those certificates using any old credential, my general impression is that, if you're starting from SJPdP, the required stamps for Compostela are unlikely to fit in any one credential.Yes I would like the compostella in Santiago and also the certificate in Oviado and Finisterre.

When I did my combo Camino I kept track of my distance walked so that the volunteer at the Pilgrims Office didn't have to do any math.Do you want a distance certificate? Different people have reported different experiences with the Pilgrim's Office on what route and distance is ultimately recorded,
