Camino Frances 2012
SJPdP-Pamplona 2018
i walked the Camino in 2012 and distinctly remember getting a bus from Pamplona to SJPdP. But everything I read now says the bus only goes to Roncesvalles and you need a taxi to SJPdP. Is this true? When did they discontinue to bus?
 
Very light, comfortable and compressible poncho. Specially designed for protection against water for any activity.

Our Atmospheric H30 poncho offers lightness and waterproofness. Easily compressible and made with our Waterproof fabric, its heat-sealed interior seams guarantee its waterproofness. Includes carrying bag.

€60,-
The Pamplona to Saint Jean route is run by ALSA/CONDE, a national and international carrier, and is seasonal. They do not put the route on the website until two months before they will actually start running the buses. In 2016 the start date was the first of March. The Pamplona to Roncevalles route is run by the Navarra regional carrier Autocares Artieda and runs all year.

When on the ALSA site you must search for the SJPdP destination by spelling out Saint in full or it will not be found.

It seems thas ALSA company operates this route only in summertime. Try to contact PLM autocares. This company arrives at Valcarlos from Pamplona dayly. Valcarlos is about 10 KM far from Saint jean in the sapanish border with France.

This thread may be helpful - although ignore the posts about Corazon Puro - unfortunately it closed last year and that service is no longer offered.

Sorry to hear Corazon Puro is closed. Barbara said she was hoping to reopen this year but had closed last year as she had to return to Hungary on family business. I know she was upset that even though she had paid the rent for the year, someone else had moved in and was operating under her name. So sad to hear she is not coming back, her and Istvan are a lovely young couple
