The Compostella certificate is awarded to all pilgrims who have walked the last 100 km to Santiago, or cycled or ridden on horse back for the last 200 km and state they walked for religious or spiritual reasons.

Each night you obtain a stamp in the pilgrim's passport to prove you have traveled along the route.

The pilgrim's passports are available at most major albergues along the route.
