    Can you prebook a bus from Bilbao to Logroño?

Álava bus company shows a schedule with a 16hr and 17hr bus from Bilbao intermodal line 17. I don't seem to find a way to ensure a seat by online booking. Any suggestions grateful...

    SJPdP one night or two?

    Arrive in the morning or midday to SJPDP, soak on the atmosphere, then after one night walk to Orrison or 1km further to Borda to relax and fully enjoy the trek over the Pyrinees.

    Hotel Continental, St Jean PdP

    If you want comfort for the first night, hotel Central is in a good location, very nice hotel. Gîte accommodation mostly on rue de la Citadelle offers a more authentic experience. Depends on what way you prefer to start. Buen camino.

    Does anyone know of any shorter pilgrimage routes around the world?

    It depends on which path you choose, there is probably more planning involved. Hostels are fewer but there are guest house style accommodation or hotels.

    Descent into Roncesvalles

    The pilgrim office in SJPDP recommends not to take the forest route. The alternate is quite beautiful.

    Excited for my upcoming bed reservation in Borda!

    You won't be wrong in splitting your stage from SJPDP to Roncevaux and staying in Borda. It was my 2nd time crossing this point of the Pyrinees. I had a leisurely walk up to Orrisson, a lovely sunny lunch with no rush to the fab views outside Borda while waiting for it to open. The following...
