- I'm planning to walk the Camino in August 2016.
Hello lovely peregrinos,
it's been a while I've been preparing for my first Camino which I'm starting on the 20 of August. I'm arriving to Madrid on the 19th and want to start from Leon. At the moment I'm trying to find the best way to get to Leon from Madrid (any recommendations?). I'm arriving in the late afternoon and want to reach Leon on the same day. Then I wonder to spend the night there and do my first steps on the Camino in the early morning from La Virgen del Camino. But I still have some things unclear about my willings.
1. Can I find any bus from Leon to La Virgen del Camino in the early morning or would it be recommended to get there the same day I arrive to Madrid? Do you probably know if there is a transportation that I could use directly from Madrid or from Leon but in the late evening?
2. Where could I get a credential when arrived and who would give me the first stamp (I will start in the early morning)?
3. Where can I get there the Camino guide with all accommodations and maps?
4. Anyone else starting the same day?
I'm sorry in advance if I bother with maybe the same questions that have already been posted, but there are so much information and discussions that make me a little bit confused.
Thank you in advance and hope to meet you on the Way!
