St. Jean to Irun

[Michael Riter]

My wife and I have walked the French, Norte, Ingles and from Santiago to Finesterra and Muxia. We're interested in walking from St. Jean to Irun and on to San Sebastian May-June. Understand there are two routes, the "high" route through the Pyrenees and the "low" route through the foothills, however, I cannot find any detailed information on the "low" option. Can someone please direct me to the resources I need to determine milages, availability of accommodations, possible baggage transfer options and any other info you can offer to help us decide whether this is a route we would like to take? Thanks very much in advance.

Michael,
Welcome to the Forum.
For personal/non commercial use I have abstracted and translated into English sections from the French site Liason Roncesvalles-Irun which describes walking in Spain from Roncesvalles to Irun using both local trails and in part the east-west Spanish GR11 trail.

If you would like a copy in English please send me a PM stating your email address.

Happy planning and Buen camino to you and your wife.

There is a rail trail that you could take. The information on the trail can be found at https://www.turismo.navarra.es/eng/organice-viaje/recurso/Patrimonio/5362/Via-Verde-del-Bidasoa.htm

Last year I was considering walking a couple of days on the Camino Baztan in reverse from Pamplona and then somehow connecting to the trail to get to Irun. I was leary of the weather so I terminated my camino in Pamplona without doing any more research.

The Dutch Association of St. Jacob has a dedicated page on this subject. Google Chrome can translate it to English for you.
