Commencing our el Camino

[TinaM]

Hi, I am from Australia, my husband & I plan to commence our walk from SJPP on May 1, 2015.
We will be flying into Barcelona on April 29, arriving at 1.40pm. Could I ask for any information on the best way to reach Saint Jean Pied-de-Port from there. Will we need to book some place overnight before we reach SJPP. Thank you for any help we receive.

TinaM,

Welcome to the Forum!
For recent posts regarding travel from Barcelona to SJPdP see this earlier 2015 Forum thread.
Various train/bus options are described in the thread via Toulouse, Irun or Pamplona.
Happy planning and Buen camino,

Hello Tina, Ron and I start from SJPDP 26th April. We are travelling to SJPDP from Bordeaux so not much help with your travel from Barcelona. Not sure if our paths will cross. We are from a Queensland. I wish you well.

Hi TinaM,

I hope you have found help with transportation on the forum. I will be starting my walk from SJPdP on May 1, and I am spending the night of 30 April there. I am coming from Paris via Biarritz. Perhaps our paths will cross as we climb the mountain!

Hello Leanne & Ron, lovely to hear that we may come across a few other Aussies on our Camino. I am starting to get a little worried about our plans as I think I should have booked our first few nights accommodation, but I don't know where to start. Think I will look into a few more of the posts in this forum & get more organised. As the date draws nearer I am very excited, a bit apprahensive & a little scared of taking on such a hugh journey. We are fortunate that we live opposite a National Park with some lovely coastal tracks.....very good for preparing, but......
Buen Camino, Chris & Alf

Hello Suzanne, lovely to hear from you, I hope we meet up as we also begin our walk May 1. How did you go about booking your accommodation at SJPdP for April 30 . I also want to book a night at Pamplona & Orisson for peace of mind.
We wish you well on your walk
Buen Camino

Looking back, I realize I am not sure how I got the reservation--maybe through Booking.com, although the reservation confirmation email was sent by "Novaresa." I am staying at Gita Ultreia, and I think they have a website. They also sent a personal email confirmation.
