hi fellow pilgrims, im heading off on y travels next year and this time im walking part of the camino del norte, starting from Santander then heading to walk the Primitivo. My question is.... Where can i get an official stamp in Santander? is there a cathedral there that issues them or a pilgrim centre like in saint jean pied de port?
thanks in advance
Nicky :eek:)
 
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.
The first stamp can be anything you like a tourist office town hall, hotel, a church a bar or whatever. I had my first stamp from my hotel I slept in before starting in Biarritz. You can always stay in the albergue in Santander and get their stamp or go to the tourist office. In SJPdP it is just easy to get it at the pilgrims office.

Thanks very much for your response ,Beatrice. It’ll be a lovely start if the cathedral issue a sello, if not then i’ll source one from the many ideas you gave.

Technical backpack for day trips with backpack cover and internal compartment for the hydration bladder. Ideal daypack for excursions where we need a medium capacity backpack. The back with Air Flow System creates large air channels that will keep our back as cool as possible.

Last May I walked the first part of the Norte in the opposite direction, from Santander to Irun. Since I only had two weeks and couldn't reach Santiago anyway, I wanted to swim against the tide...
I use Alltrails a lot here in the US, in Iceland, on the Via Podiensis and a bit on the CF. Will it be useful on the Norte? For example, people here say the "warm up" from Biarritz to Irun (or...
