    Yes, we walked to Monestario de Rodilla yesterday but didn't sleep there. Our friend from Burgos picked us up in the afternoon with her car. Today, we switch from Pilgrims to Hospitaleros at the Casa de Peregrinos Emaus for two weeks :-)

    28-04-22 Pancorbo to Briviesca (20 kms). Yes @SabineP. Nice walk out of Pancorbo followed by 3-4 kms of mud. Good thing it didn't last too long. Briviesca is a really nice small village. We went to Fortu Restaurante recommended by a friend, very good too. Got to visit the new albergue under...

    27-04-2022 - Miranda de Ebro - Pancorbo (18 kms). Woke up at 7am. Quickly got packed and ready to go. Locked the Albergue door and gate behind us, and placed the keys in the dropbox. Bar Oxono about 100 meters away opens at 6am, and serves good coffee and tortilla. Beautiful trail across...

    We had a great menu del dia at La Tarrara, lots of vegetables and a very friendly owner. The Oasis recommended by our hospitalero is still closed due to Covid. Turns out Padre Carlos from the EMAUS parroquial albergue in Burgos where we volunteer was born in Miranda. He was delighted to learn...

    24/04/22 Vitoria to La Puebla de Arganzón (20 kms). Get your coffee fix before leaving Vitoria as there are no bars or restaurants until you arrive! A couple of local people strongly recommended the alternate track to the right (already in Buen Camino) starting after Centro Penitenciario de...

    Hi Annie, we only booked in Zegama but we did call a few times to make sure the Albergues were open, especially in small villages with limited options. Pierre

    Saturday April 23 - Salvatierra/Agurain to Vitoria (29 kms). Brutal wind all day and chilling... Never got above 9c. Nice string of villages but no coffee/tortilla. We ended up doing a small detour into Alegria/Dulantzi to eat lunch. Also the Buen Camino track gets you to walk on A-132 just...

    Friday April 22 - Zegama-Agurain (21 kms). Clear blue sky but chilling 6c as we woke up at 7am morning. We decided to leave at 9am to gain a few degrees, especially that we are climbing almost 1,000 mets today and it's going to be colder up there. We also wanted time for a good breakfast and...

    Thursday April 21st. Beasain to Zegama. A very short 12 kms as measured by Strava. You really don't have to leave so early but you must have a reservation. The Ostatu Zegama is a very nice pension! 55 euros double accommodation with private bathroom and heat. They do offer a very good menu del...

    Wednesday, April 20th. Tolosa to Beasain. We arrived at the municipal Albergue in Beasain, almost dry but uncertain about whether or not it was open. Our information said it was temporarly closed and we had no way of checking ahead. There are a few small Pensións nearby so we had a plan B. Turns...

    Tuesday, April 19. Santiagomendi to Tolosa (28 kms). We finally dragged ourselves to Pensión Karmentxu in Tolosa at 4pm, pretty cold and wet. Apparently the local albergue is closed and we didn't have the energy to check it out. Pension Karmentxu was 50 euros for a double room with shared...
