Hi, Monika,

and welcome to the forum. I think the easiest to reach St.Jean from Barcelona would be through Pamplona. You can either take a train or bus which are numerous during each day. Maybe worth taking a peek in these threads:

From Pamplona to St.Jean there's a bus service or you can share a taxi ride. In last days there were many positive posts regarding Corazon Puro Albergue service. You can get idea what's that all about here:

Have a nice Camino.

Ultreia!

The fastest way:

Fly from Barcelona to San Sebastian (EAS). Airport is located 2 km from Irun Renfe Station.

SNCF TGV from Irun to Bayonne. SNCF TER from Bayonne to SJPdP.

The easiest way is ALSA bus or Renfe train from Barcelona to Pamplona.

Then Conda bus (owned by ALSA) Pamplona to SJPdP. When looking up the ALSA schedule use international tab for Pamplona to SJPdP section. At time of writing there is one bus per day 1730 17 March t0 30 Sept 2014. A second daily trip will operate 1430 1 June - 30 Sept 2014.
