Hi there!

I am doing part of the Camino with two friends in May. We previously did the route from Leon to Santiago de Compostella but are travelling a shorter section this time.

My question is does anyone know if there is a local bus service between Los Arcos, Torres del Rio, Viana and Logrno? My Camino guide says all four are served by buses but I can't find any routes or timetables online.

I need to know in advance as we may be catching a train from Logrono to Bilbao so need to get there early.

Thanks

Technical backpack for day trips with backpack cover and internal compartment for the hydration bladder. Ideal daypack for excursions where we need a medium capacity backpack. The back with Air Flow System creates large air channels that will keep our back as cool as possible.

Hello Schiehallion

You should begin by looking at www.rome2rio.com where you will see links to the required timetables.

There does appear to be the same gap in service in the middle of the day which we found in 2008 ; it was simpler to walk (briskly) all the way from Los Arcos to Logrono and then catch a bus to Bibao...

Yes, bus rather than train. As usual in Spain, there are 7 buses (most days) as opposed to 3-4 trains.

Buen Camino.

First one in 1977 by train. Many since then by foot. Next one ASAP.

Thanks Mike! Great advice....
 
Get a spanish phone number with Airalo. eSim, so no physical SIM card. Easy to use app to add more funds if needed.

The Brierley guidebook map accurately shows the location of the bus stop in Los Arcos. You pay upon boarding the bus.... It's dirt cheap and perfectly comfortable.

Easy. Now you have the timetable...One year, I ended my walk in Los Arcos and took the bus to Logrono. As others have said it was very easy; I paid when getting on the bus.
It seemed like a much longer journey on the bus than it had felt walking - and the bus was plenty comfortable. It was just the mind-bending part. As In "I actually walked this last year?!"

Yes, there is. I took it last year from Los Arcos to Logroño, with a stop at Viana. Sorry I can’t provide a schedule. Good luck.
 
Ideal sleeping bag liner whether we want to add a thermal plus to our bag, or if we want to use it alone to sleep in shelters or hostels. Thanks to its mummy shape, it adapts perfectly to our body.
