Dear pilgrim friends, I am on the VdlP right now and would like to connect to the Francés in Astorga. Can I keep on using my VdlP credencial?

Yes, you can. It certifies that you are a pilgrim eligible to stay in albergues. It is not route specific.
 
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.

€83,-
I agree, the VdlP credencial can be used on the Camino Frances. That said, I got a new credencial in Astorga (after walking up from Sevilla) just as a reminder that I had walked both routes. They are two very different routes and two credencials seemed appropriate.
 
Luka, as Falcon writes, your credencial is not route specific. In Santiago at the Pilgrims Office you will simply mention that you walked all the VdlP passing through Astorga (as opposed to Ourense). Felicitaciones!!!

Thanks all!
 
Ideal sleeping bag liner whether we want to add a thermal plus to our bag, or if we want to use it alone to sleep in shelters or hostels. Thanks to its mummy shape, it adapts perfectly to our body.
