Time of past OR future Camino
20th Sept to October 2023
Hi everyone!

I am due to begin my first Camino September 23rd in Burgos but I will have a backpack (less than 10kilos) that I would need to ship to Santiago to collect once it is completed.

Just wondering if it’s easier from Barcelona or is there a good Correos office in Burgos that can arrange?

Also what approx would the cost for this service be and storage for 22-24 days?

Many thanks & Buen Camino 🙏
 
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.
You can send it from either place, though I think that the Correos office in Burgos might be more familiar with the special rate for pilgrims called Paq Peregrino.

Information and pricing here:


Or you can send it via regular mail to be held at Casa Ivar
