I have not been able to find any references regarding the best way of getting from Barcelona to Somport. All advice will be appreciated, thank you.

Hi!
You could walk from Barcelona...The Camino Catalán begins at the Monastery of Montserrat just a short distance north of Barcelona and meets up withthe Francés in Logroño. I was in Monsterrat last weekend and got a lovely guidebook. It is in Spanish though...

Buen Camino,
 
That's what I did, at least to Jaca, and then I suppose you could go up to Somport by local bus and then walk back again.

Still, if you want to start out walking from Somport, you could take the train to Canfranc. Renfe goes from Barcelona to Zaragossa in an hour and a half, and you could then take a local train (3h45min) from Zaragossa to Canfranc through Jaca. Somport is just up the hill from Canfranc. There is likely a Barcelona-Jaca bus, but I couldn't find it.
 
The 2024 Camino guides will be coming out little by little. Here is a collection of the ones that are out so far.
