    Beilari Albergue SJPDP

    I was in St. Jean at the beginning of September without a reservation. Met some people staying at Beilari and they had a fabulous time. They tried to get me a bed there, but alas, it wasn't to be. I did meet Joseph and he was the NICEST guy. I don't know if the cook was grumpy or not but the...

    Express Bourricot - September 6th ride share

    Hi, I will be arriving at the Biarritz airport on September 6th. Rather than figure out the trains and connections while jetlagged, I signed up for a transfer from airport to St. Jean with Express Bourricot for 4:30pm. Here's the thing, the more people that join me, the less we all pay! I...

    Valcarlos Route questions!

    I'm essentially one month out and I think I'm trying to find things to worry about. I'm usually an extensive planner. I love planning trips as much as taking them. So this whole "wherever the road takes me" thing is it's own challenge. Ha!

    Valcarlos Route questions!

    Awesome! Just wanted to check as I would prefer the Napoleon route and do have a reservation at Orrison. My asthma is generally not exercise induced though I'm definitely trying to shape up a bit before getting there. It's almost all allergy induced and I live in one of the top 10 worst cities...

    Valcarlos Route questions!

    Trying to get my butt in gear and leaving for my first camino in early September. As I've been walking around Cincinnati, OH on very hot days with "air quality" alerts, I've realized just how much it affects my otherwise perfectly controlled asthma. Anyways, I was all set on going Napoleon in...

    Difficulty in making a reservation at Refuge Orisson

    I was able to book for the 7th in the Kayola gite that is down the road. Still wondering if I should do that or Valcarlos.

    Drinkable water?

    Curious, when are you arriving? I plan to start on September 5th from St. Jean and split the day.

    Any tips for a first timer starting out in February 2018?

    Thank you all for the replies! My issue, being from the US, is that I should probably book a roundtrip ticket so find myself debating a time limit but want to do it all at once and on a limited budget. I just can't really get into the spirit of dividing it up, planning to go from St. Jean to...

    Any tips for a first timer starting out in February 2018?

    Ok one more question! The route Napoleon is THE route from Saint Jean to Roncesvalle? Or is there another way through? I want to challenge myself with the first day's walk so I'm fairly adamant on starting in France. Kinda "shocking" myself into it, if you will. I just saw that Easter falls...

    Any tips for a first timer starting out in February 2018?

    At what time of year does the Route Napoleon usually reopen? I'm considering starting around the 1st of April.
