My sister and I have tickets to Spain from USA this year. I would appreciate any feed back from pilgrims that have traveled through Spain and if it is possible
 
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,-
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.
As we do not have a crystal ball I do not know what will be possibe in August, as I do not know if by then:
- there will be inter regional travel restrictions
- vaccination in Spain goes as scheduled
- how many albergues will be open (and with which capacity)
- etc.

@geraldkelly has made an excellent FAQ about relevant issues, which I think can be of big help in your decision-making:

The "Free Guide" is well written and researched.
 
The focus is on reducing the risk of failure through being well prepared. 2nd ed.
Hi @Pancho. That "Free Guide" is a good summary for the VDLP, as of "early April 2021," especially since it presents how the considerations all need to work together to allow the camino to return to full function.

I will close this thread now, for the reasons explained in this new thread. In no way is this a criticism of your question! Please continue to ask questions about the VDLP, and watch the forum for information as the conditions change and more pilgrims are walking.
