    Bus from Jaca to San Juan de la Pena Info

    I took a bus up to the monasteries from Jaca in September 2023. It left about 9.00am and delivered us to the new monastery. The bus then left at about 2.00pm and picked us up at the old monastery on the way back. Well worth the trip.

    Salamanca Rest Day: Your tips

    Spend some time looking for the carving of the astronaut which is located on the external wall of the Cathedral of Salamanca. Both myself and the late Carmen Garcia spent about an hour looking for it without success. Thankfully a couple of local kids pointed it out to us.

    Torrijos' albergue reopening

    I stayed at the albergue about a week ago. I used the code provided by the Tourism Office . Several days later, I met two pilgrims who arrived at Torrijos separately after 5.30pm. One asked the Police man in a car for the code. He was told the albergue was closed and to go to a hotel on the edge...

Too late to...
