Question about horse and carriage from Carrion to Calzadilla

From earlier years, I know that this service has been offered from the outskirts of Carrion (after the city centre), near an old church/monastery, starting at 8.30 AM. I have been tempted, as the walk ahead is a long and tiresome 17 kms without nothing. I think they charge you 15 Euros for the ride.

Yes, I did it in 2017 and it was €15. I felt bad for the horses, but he is assuring me in our conversation at the start of the video that they live a good life.

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.
I live in the NEIGHborhood and have not seen the flyers around this year. Will try to remember to ask Mariano at Bar Espana. He knows all this stuff.
Thanks Rebekah - do you have any updates? I’m in Hontanas now and would like to take carriage if at all possible

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.
