In fact, it's Monasterio de Bargota - found in Village to Village Guide 2023. Also, try this link - https://www.wikiloc.com/hiking-trails/puente-la-reina-monasterio-de-bargota-maneru-santa-barbara-88450000 and possibly this https://www.juventudnavarra.es/es/monasterio-de-bargota-i...
In my 2012 and 2022 editions of Brierley's, on pg 76, see at the bottom of the 0.0km Puenta la Reina section (bottom quarter of the page) it mentions the 13th (XIII) C site of the Monasterio de Bogota... Also in the map there is the small "pyramid" of purple dots and mentions ruinas. I don't...
I have certainly learned a lot about religion, spirituality, myself, and so many other things while walking and experiencing the Camino. Gratitudes. I’ve returned to the Francés many times because it keeps reminding me of all the people and experiences I’ve had… for which I will be forever...
Belorado - about 20 km after Santo Domingo -- and stay at Casa Waslala, with Paul and Belmalyn!! Belorado is a lovely place with wonderful murals, good places to find meals (Paul will probably make a reservation for you for dinner at Cuatro Cantones), and a few interesting ruins that have been...
Haven't read all the replies - sorry if I repeat, but why not the Frances in the Fall since you've done it in the Spring... I've done it mostly in the Fall, but once in the Spring, and it was wonderful seeing the difference in seasons!
Sorry, my preference would be to contact Correos either at the nearest office or via phone as indicated when I sent the bag - I like interpersonal contact when I'm on camino. My contacts with correos have always been positive. Also, I'm seldom in a hurry. One time I added an email address and...
Curious... I've used booking.com, and received a couple of replies from booking.com.uk, booking.com.de -- assuming these were from booking.com offices in those countries even tho' I was booking accommodations in Spain. So far, I have not had problems - but wondering about the reliability and...
I always stopped at Restaurante Los Angeles for a very good meal when I arrived in Hospital de Orbigo. It's at the far end of the Bridge, first left. I hope it's still the same! Last time I was there was Fall 2021. It's a largish place with mostly locals, but the wait-staff are very nice and...
Ahh, yes the train - not Metro - would be better - does it go - eventually - to Gare Montparnasse - for the trip south? I think I still like staying near Denfret Rochereau, and walking to Montparnasse via the delightful Rue Daguerre!! - only about a km's walk...
I booked the train from Montparnasse to Hendaye on-line using my senior discount on SNCF a few days before my departure from the US. The Euskotren can be paid for at an easy-to-use machine at the station in Spain - a short walk across the border. The Alsa bus ticket I got shortly before the...
Just did this about three weeks ago - EASY! I arrived at Orly, and took Orly Bus to Denfert-Rochereau and stayed three nights at the Hotel Du Lion (that spelling), just around the corner on Ave General LeClerc. Took the train from Montparnasse to Hendaye, crossed the border and got the...
