Car Parking in St Jean De Pied de Port

[Turaseoirai]

Hi. this year my eldest brother will be 60 and to celebrate, some of our family plan to walk part of the Camino with him, from St Jean de Pied de Port to Estella or Logrono. To facilitate family members who will be using the hand luggage option on flights, two of us (who have more time to spare!!) are driving our car from Ireland to St Jean, carrying walking sticks etc that cannot be carried in hand luggage. Can anyone help us with regard to parking the car at St Jean for the week or so that we will be walking?

Your best bet would be to contact the Tourist Office in SJPdP.

Yes, please let us know how this worked out for you. You know there will be more people asking for this later on as well.

Good luck!

In June 2007, I left my car in one of the campsites. Sadly, I can't remember which one but it was pointed out to me by the Tourist Office so I'm sure they could help you out. I had not booked a spot, just showed up and it remained there happily for 5 weeks under a tarpaulin. Cost around 50 euros I think.

I see the answers are quite old. Maybe someone could suggest where I could leave a car for a month?

Express Bourricot is a company whose stated purpose is to provide people with transportation from their stopping point on the camino back to their cars. Perhaps they may have some information for you. Else contact town of SJPdP.
