LIVE from the Camino Where is the bus station in Pamplona!

[CaminoKris2013]

I feel all turned around, but if it wasn't for catching a cab after getting thru the crazy crowds in the old part of town, I'd still be looking for my hotel for tonight. I am staying at the Hotel Europa if that helps.

It is over by the Citadele.

Estación de Autobuses de Pamplona
Calle Yanguas y Miranda, 2
31003 Pamplona
Navarra, Spain

there is a tourist information office there in Pamplona......
They have maps, etc and I found them to be very helpful throughout the Camino, and they will also stamp your pilgrim's passport.
If you have the Brierley guidebook it has a good map of Pamplona in it.Can get you to the tourist's office.

Is that the same as Ciudadela in Brieley's guide? Sorry if it sounds like a dumb question, but like I said I am having a hard time figuring out these old Spanish big cities.

That is the one. Get a map of Pamplona from any of many tourist locations, including the Jesus y Maria albergue desk.

Hi, Kris,
You are very close to the bus station. It should be about about a ten minute walk.

From your hotel, get out onto Calle Vergel, and turn right (to the left is the bull ring). Walk about 6 blocks to the end of the street and turn left -- you are now on the Calle Yanguas y Miranda, and the bus station is on that street right after a big roundabout. Good luck! Buen camino, Laurie

Kris, it sounds as if you are doing it a bit tough. Sending you puffs of encouragement! Remember it takes at least two weeks to get trail fit - and sometimes It is just sheer deep stubbornness that gets me there - one foot in front of the other, one foot in front of the other. Keep walking, no matter how slowly!

Europa tagged upper right

I stayed there and loved it if that helps! Nowhere near La Ciudadela; used la Plaza del Castillo as landmark instead. A bit of a walk (800 mtrs to be exact) to La Ciudadela which is by where the main bus station in Pamplona is.

Why not use Google maps on your iPhone (see you are using the app via iPhone) as you don't need internet for the GPS.

Very difficult to understand , why don't you ask anyone on the street to point you where is the bus station or estación de autobuses!
We here is Spain have a said 'asking you can get to Rome', I mean you are not in the middle of no where or a really small village or in the country.
Buen Camino and don't be shy to ask!

The bus station in Pamplona is mostly underground. I had to ask twice and retrace three times before I located the modest above ground escalator entrance. It really wasn't obvious until I was within the block. Luckily I went early in the day to locate the station before needing to be there for the evening bus to Roncevalles.

I should have mentioned that I asked twice and retraced three times WHILE I was using the google maps app on my iphone. The estacion de renfe in Pamplona does not have a large presence at all above ground.

Estacion de autobus, I think you mean; the Renfe station is some distance away and down the hill.

As I recall, The bus station is by a park. The entrance is a glass structure above ground but the buses are underground.
