    SJPP-Roncesvalles Map

    Back in 2017 when I walked from SJPP to Roncesvalles, the Pilgrim Office in SJPP provided me with an excellent map of the route. Since I arrive in SJPP after the Pilgrim office closes, and depart the next day before they close, does anyone have a good clear copy of that map? Much appreciated -...

    Pilgrim Office QR Code Question

    I will be arriving in Santiago on August 11th. I went on the Oficina del Peregrino Website earlier today and got a QR Code, which I saved. Was this too far in advance, and will I need to secure the QR code again as my arrival date is almost two months away? Much thanx for the help - Steve

    Camino de Invierno Backpack Transfer

    Does anyone know if backpack transfers are available on the Camino de Invierno? Seems like Jacotrans and others concentrate on the Camino Frances. I am having shoulder surgery this week, and carrying a pack in April might be problematic. Much thanks - Steve

    Zubiri, Urdaniz or Larrasoana??

    I am leaving SJPP on May 29th, first night in Orisson, then Roncesvalles. I am torn between staying in Zubiri, Urdaniz or Larrasoana. I have a suspicion that Zubiri, being one of the Brierly stops, might be crowded. Any opinions on the above towns? Any recommendations on places to stay?

    Suggestions for Bayonne, France

    I will be in Bayonne France for one evening on Sunday, May 28th. I am staying very close to the train station, so I can get the first train to SJPP the morning of the 29th. I know the cathedral is very pretty, but is it close to the train station? Are there other places of interest I should...

    Signage from SJPP to Orisson

    I am walking solo this summer from SJPP to Burgos. Some people commented that the signage from SJPP through Roncesvalles is sometimes hard to find. Are there maps available at the Pilgrim Center in SJPP? Any comments on applicable signage? I did walk the CF from Burgos into Santiago, with no...

    I will be leaving SJPP on Monday, May 29, 2017. I need to buy lunch for my walk to Orisson and heard that there is a very good outdoor market on Monday to buy sandwiches, meat and such. Does this exist, and if so where? In the alternative, I arrive by train that morning in SJPP. Is there any...

    My 2.2 Kilo/4.3 Pound CF Packing List

    After three past Caminos, I have managed to get everything I need to bring down to 2.2 kilos, (4.3 pounds), not including my pack for my upcoming May 29th 2017 Camino Frances.

    Bayonne/St. Jean Travel Question

    I arrive very late at the Biarritz airport on a Sunday in May to begin the Camino Frances. It is too late for the last train from Bayonne to St. Jean, and all the transfer services are horribly expensive due to the hour and day. I am thinking of staying the night in Bayonne by the train...

    Orisson Response/Saint Jean Question

    Friends: First, I have sent two e-mails to the albergue in Orisson asking whether they have a bed for one night in May. I haven't seen any response in more than a week. Is there any magic into securing a reservation? Also, do you pay in advance or at the time you arrive? I am concerned that...

    Guys: Due to time constraints, I need to remove one day from my Camino this June in the stretch between St. Jean and Burgos. Is there any day that sticks out in your mind that I could skip, perhaps using a taxi that I might not miss? On my recent walk from Astorga to Santiago, the awful...
