Well, there is a friendly restaurant some 800 m back towards Zubiri on the motorway.
Be aware tough, no lightning on the road, so take a flashlight to get safely back to the albergue.

Therefore: the air in your clothes has mass, but it weighs nothing (a balloon filled with helium has mass but a negative weight)

I walked my Camino with a Garmin GPS 60Cx.
It wasn't of any use.
But I kept a track of my walking, just for fun.
I bought my maps from the Garmin web-site.

Neither God, nor His fan-club; it's the hooligans I really dislike!
Religion makes good people better, and bad people worse

In Lourdes you can get your credencial at the information desk, on the large square nearby the grotte, the one with the big golden crown.

Re: Re:
Never had trouble with sharing.
I like to share the footpaths with walkers, the roads with car's and cyclists.
Should we share the footpaths and cycle-paths with off-the-road motorcyles as well?

Re:
Thanks, Super7.
I am a walker, and copy your opinion.
Cyclist should stay away from the walking paths.

BTW: in times of old there weren't dedicated paths for pilgrims. There weren't way-marks (nor were there cyclists :wink:). The pilgrims used the trade routes.

My maximum was about 34 Km.
I met an elderly lady from Australia, Veronica. "You know", she said, "I am walking some 10 Km a day, and I am getting to Santiago as well..." Saw her twice, she took a bus every once in a while.
And I also met a German guy, walking 50 Km a day. Never saw him again...
Hi Jenny,
I walked that part both in 2005 and 2008, both times in the beginning of october.
The maps from aucoeurduchemin are more than sufficient (as is the way-marking)
Prepare to walk alone until Oloron Ste Marie.
I didn't call in advance for lodging, and found a bed every night.
Ultreya...
There are shops specialized in articles for the running people.
They have undies for those who do need to protect their dangling parts.
Works for pilgrims as well.
I prefer shorts.
