Time of past OR future Camino
July & August 2018
This will be our first Camino and due to logistics and time I've decided to start my camino in Pamplona. Will be taking train from Barcelona arriving mid afternoon. Any suggestions from others who have been there and done that would be much appreciated.
Cheers. :)

I can recommend the smaller albergue Casa Paderbon run by the German St James confraternity.
Quiet and next to the nautical centre.

The first edition came out in 2003 and has become the go-to-guide for many pilgrims over the years. It is shipping with a Pilgrim Passport (Credential) from the cathedral in Santiago de Compostela.
Albergue Aloha is terrific: it’s a lovely old building, quite modern and very clean, and it has a great sitting area and a lovely rooftop terrace. Close to the Camino as well..,
 
Down bag (90/10 duvet) of 700 fills with 180 g (6.34 ounces) of filling. Mummy-shaped structure, ideal when you are looking for lightness with great heating performance.

€149,-
I stayed at the Aloha as well. Very clean and you can cook if you wish. Also a good breakfast is provided. Very close to the bus station and easy to get back on the Camino.
