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 would like to walk this year with the new credencial. Any ideas where I can get it in advance?
I am starting in Somport and don't want to wait in case I can't get it at the start.
Thanks in advance

These credenciales are being issued for this year only and all other credenciales are still valid. hey are supplied by the Pilgrims' Office to associations, churches and albergues in Spain and many other parts of Europe. The Pilgrims' Office is only now fulfilling orders with the new credenciales so it may be best if you wait until nearer the time of your departure. To get one in advance you could ask here:

Looks like they had you in mind Tom,

Chalice in one hand pole in other :wink: (in the sitting position), even the muti-functioning, easy-on, easy-off anorak.
 
Down bag (90/10 duvet) of 700 fills with 180 g (6.34 ounces) of filling. Mummy-shaped structure, ideal when you are looking for lightness with great heating performance.
