New Albergue in Pertusa

[lindam]

Good news for pilgrims planning a walk on the Cami Catalan: a new pilgrims' albergue has opened in Pertusa. The facility offers 6 beds, heating, a shower, a kitchen, bathrooms and a washing machine. It is located in Park Square with keys available at the bar next door from 9:00 to 3:00 and 6:00 to 9:00, except on Tuesdays.

Good spot too, halfway between Berbegal and Pueyo de Fañanás. It gives more flexibility.

I had to go back and remind myself of the details - an albergue will definitely be a good addition. This still holds, I assume?:

And NB, for planning purposes if you want to stay here:

Pertusa celebrates its holidays on the 15th and 16th of August, in honor of Nuestra Señora de la Asunción. Although there are other holidays, for San Blas and Santa Águeda, [villagers] have not lost either the tradition of the bonfires of San Antón. They were lighting in the different streets. Sometimes the fire lasts entire days with its corresponding nights.
