    Camino Aragones in April

    Could be! This one somewhere before Monreal was a godsend.

    Camino Aragones in April

    There were a few water fountains but agree re: the food. My RX protein bars (brought from the US) saved me on a number of segments on the Aragónés last summer.

    Crossing the Pyrenees from Oloron St. Marie, Bedous or Canfranc Estacion: Tips for Starting the Camino Aragones

    Hi! I haven't walked the Primitivo so I can't say for sure which is "harder." How much time do you have, and will you be walking alone or with a companion. The route from Oloron to Somport is absolutely stunning and I highly recommend it, especially if you can space it out more than I did...

    Crossing the Pyrenees from Oloron St. Marie, Bedous or Canfranc Estacion: Tips for Starting the Camino Aragones

    Crossing the Pyrenees from Oloron St. Marie, Bedous or Canfranc Estacion: Tips for Starting the Camino Aragones

    For anyone looking to walk the Camino Aragones, which meets up with the Camino Frances at Puente La Reina, I highly recommend starting in Oloron St. Marie or Bedous France and actually crossing the Pyrenees and entering Spain by at Somport. It's remote, stunning scenery, and the Pyrenees...

    Updates and changes on the Aragones route in the Pyrenees

    Hi there. I walked the Aragones last summer, starting a few stages prior on the Chemin d'Arles in Oloron St. Marie. I think what they may be referring to is a creation of an actual Camino trail between Borce and Urdos. Currently, the only route is on the shoulder of the N134 roadway, which is...

    Camino Aragonés 2021 Questions

    Hola a tod@s! I am planning/hoping to walk the Camino Aragonés, starting in Pau/Oloron Sainte-Marie, in early July. I've read that this is not a very highly trafficked Camino route, but I'm hoping to hear first-hand from those who have done this Camino in recent years whether you met other...
