Time of past OR future Camino
CF en of April 2015
I'm starting out from SJPP on the 22nd of April, but need to detour to Madrid for the weekend of May 1st (and rejoin after). Since I'm not certain where I'll be, I was hoping to grab a bus the morning of the 1st wherever I happen to have stopped (maybe around Belorado?) . But I'm a bit concerned about buses being full, should I book in advance or will I likely be able to find my way to Mardrid (ideally, by 8pm). I'll likely book a return train from Madrid to a major city, and go from there, so I'm not concerned about getting back to the trail, just getting to Madrid.
 
The 2024 Camino guides will be coming out little by little. Here is a collection of the ones that are out so far.
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.
€2,-/day will present your project to thousands of visitors each day. All interested in the Camino de Santiago.
