There are six agents on horseback who will patrol the Camino de Santiago in the coming weeks with the aim of giving greater security to the pilgrims who travel the Jacobean route as they pass through the province of León.
During its stay, this equestrian unit of the National Police will place special emphasis on the 15 kilometers of the Camino that cross the municipality of Ponferrada, a way of giving greater ‘visibility and relevance to the capital of Bierzo within the Jacobean route’, explained the Mayor of Ponferrada, Olegario Ramón.
