alternative routes through Jaca
Ta for answering!
I was intrigued to find out about this path having seen a map Jaca published at the MSNforum http://groups.msn.com/ElCaminoSantiago/CaminoMaps5.msnw . I have no idea where the map comes from! It shows two marked Caminos through Jaca. None of...
well spotted! congratulations on taking a pic of an otherwise not so pretty place! I've always wondered why the author, whoever it was, of this chapel decided on a design so out of place if you consider the surroundings. Well, I've never seen it in winter...
alternative routes through Jaca
To walk through Jaca is easy, because one just has to follow Avenida de Francia due west, with the ciudadela on the right. But there is (or was ?) also a marked trail to the east of the citadel. Does anyone know about it? How can one find it on entering Jaca...
Hello Kahu,
have you waterproofed your walking boots yet? I do advise you to do it. If you plan to walk over Somport Pass (stunningly beautiful!), there's a good possibility you will have to brave snow and freezing cold. Just before starting you might consult weather reports at...
If you decide to walk from Puenta la Reina de Jaca to Berdun, picturesque as it is, though the way itself is much to close to the N-240, a logical direction to return to the camino GR65.3 is a narrow tarmacked coutry road signposted, I think, to Martes. Before the road crosses the Aragon river...
Has anyone cycled the camino, that is the waymarked camino trail, from Oloron to Somport? Can it be done, or will I have to cycle along this horrible N124? I drove along the road last autumn and it was so narrow in places and to my taste it had too much traffic. On the other hand, I'm sort of...
re: albergue in Santa Cruz de los Seros
so a question to those two (sorry, can't find your names) who mentioned the albergue
Where precisely in Santa Cruz de los Seros is it? We walked around but never saw any signposts. (It was already dusk and we were knackered.)
We're planning Camino Aragones...
Thanks for your messages - very helpful. I know the Rocaforte route: muddy after rains and tough if you've got no extra food on you but quiet and more isolated if you like this sort of thing. I'm interested in the above mentioned variante because of Foz de Lumbier, which is on the way. Is the...
Has anyone done on foot or by bike the stretch from Sanguesa via Liedena via Foz de Lumbier and farther on to Izco? Is there a trail marked with yellow arrows or something? How to get to Izco then? I couldn't find any sensible map of the area, nor info about this alternative camino. Could...
