    Taxi? Can they find us in the middle of nowhere?

    I can only go by Google Maps...to my eyes...Zubiri looks like in the middle of nowhere.

    Taxi? Can they find us in the middle of nowhere?

    Wondering if you are stuck, without a bed, in the middle of the Camino, in a very small town...can we expect to get a taxi to another location where beds might be available?

    Overcrowded Camino Frances

    Exactly Kathar1na. We were not aware of the busy weekend! Lesson learned. We are both new to this form despite dreaming of the Camino for years! I think we foolishly thought the Camino would provide...but need to lower our expectations or widen our thoughts!

    So she and others took the bus back to the Saint Jean where she was able to find a bed. I guess she could have bused back to Roncesvalles and used her booked date, instead she looked forwarded. But looking forward, no beds available between Roncesvalles and Pamplona, so she ended up skipping...

    Overcrowded Camino Frances

    I understand your confusion. She wasn't planning on walking the entire way the first day. She was planning on walking just to the statue but weather conditions/winds convinced her to take the winder route instead. She ended up walking the entire distance ending up too early.

    As a side note, she did not plan on walking to the entire way the first day, but busing back to SJPDP at the statue of Mary and returning the next day.. The next day plan was to walk from the statue to Roncesvalles where she prebooked.

    Overcrowded Camino Frances

    My friend is trying to figure out bookings/lodging. She started in SJPDP Friday, ended up walking the Winter route to Roncesvalles in one day, only to find no bed so bused back to SJPDP to sleep another night (Friday). Saturday morning she skipped Roncesvalles and bused to straight to Pamplona...
