travel to bayonne/biarritz/sjpp

  1. Eve Alexandra

    End of March getting to SJPP

    Since the bus isn’t going to be running till April, Is it better to try to get from Pamplona to Bayonne in order to get to SJPP? Or take the bus I *think is still running to Roncesvalles and then contact Express Bourricot to try to get a ride from Roncesvalles to SJPP?

    Getting to SJPP

    Getting to SJPP from Paris I will be arriving at the Paris Airport on the morning of May 3rd and am hoping to travel to SJPdP by train/bus on that day, staying in SJPdP overnight before getting started on my Camino. Is that practical? Any advice would be appreciated.

    Train line from Bayonne to St Jean Pied de Port

    Does anybody happen to know if the train line from Bayonne to St Jean is out of action ? 'Trainline' shows six times per day departures but no availability (April/May).....surely it can't be so busy that it has all sold out already ?

    Barcelona to SJPDP

    Was wondering how to get from Barcelona to SJPDP in August. What I have read seems a bit old and when I start investigating buses and trains seem to have changed times or become non-existent. This will be my first Camino so am a real newbie. Thank you :)

    Train from Bayonne to SJPDP.

    I have heard that the train from Bayonne to SJPDP is not running any more. Is this a fact? If so, are there other options for us coming with the train from Paris?

    Walking from Bayonne to St Jean Pied de Port: A Perfect Preparation for the Camino Frances

    The map tells me that the walk from Bayonne to St Jean is approximately 50 km. That’s a 1-2 day walk. I figure that’s good preparation for the Camino Frances. Has anyone done this walk? Is it doable and is there a place to stop and stay mid-way?

    Bus service Pamplona to SJPdP

    I received a prompt and friendly response from Alsa to my inquiry about when bus service would resume between Pomplona and St. Jean Pied de Port. The Google English translation I paste below. My read on this is that they may or may not resume service. They will let the world know if they do...
