sjpp to roncesvalles

Good day to all! I am setting off on the Camino Frances in the middle of May. I have read recommendations to book my accommodations ahead for the first three nights, up to Pamplona. I plan to do a mixture of private rooms and shared accommodations along the route. While looking for a room...

Hi everyone. Does anyone know if they still have the Pyrenees route closed until April 1st? I enjoy a winter Camino and hence prefer to start earlier, but it’s been a while and didn’t know if the rules had changed.

Hello! My daughter and I are walking our first Camino in May 2024. We are from Toronto, Ontario, Canada. Our first day will be walking from SJPDP to Orisson. Sadly, we could not find accommodation in Orisson. Is it difficult to find a taxi back to SJPDP from Orisson and then back again the next...

Just bitten the bullit and booked a bed in Borda for the middle of September. It was n't there the last time I walked the CF so really looking forward to the experience. last time I stayed in Orisson which was very nice.

I arrive in Pamplona on April 16 at 9 AM and thinking about going directly to SJPP, checking in and starting straight out for Orisson. Has anyone else done this? Should I consider rather spending the day and night in SJPP and heading out early the 17th?

I am trying to book in the Valcarlos albergue using Whatsapp. The albergue number is in my contact list, the number is a one with a « 6 » and it does not work, there is a message saying that the number is not registred on Whatsapp…which is obviously not the case. Anybody a bright idea ? (BTW...

I begin the Camino Frances from SJPdP on my birthday in mid-late May. Taking it relatively easy on the first day, so will stay at one of these two accommodations that night. Auberge Borda seems to be of higher quality in terms of beds, facilities and food. However, Refuge Orisson seems to be a...

In December I have tried by email to book a reservation for the municipal albergue in Valcarlos for March, I received no answer. I thought that I was too early because it was still 2023, I tried again few days ago still no answer, am I still too early ?

Booking for Borda 2024 is now open. We booked for April today. Www.aubergeborda.com

I watched a youtube video which said that there was a lot of road walking one day 1. Could someone clarify this please, am i going to be on the road for most of the first day without a road shoulder trying to maneuver around cars. Thaank you

Hi, it is October 2023 now; when I look at Alberge Borda website to book a night for April or May 2024 there is no availability. Can anyone offer advice as to when one should be able to book for the following year (once winter is over)? Thanks

We began our Camino Frances today and are spending the night at the delightful Albergue in Borda. When in SJPDP at the passport office they gave us a map showing a portion of the route shown in John Brierley’s book as closed and are recommending a detour down to follow the road into...

Greetings, I have read and watched in the neighborhood of about fifty hours of material regarding the Camino and each time I learn something new. A frequent mention of the first day is "it's hard, but you'll be fine!" coupled with a recent video of a young couple half my age huffing and puffing...

Hello all! I’m starting my first Camino in a couple weeks, and I am so so excited. I’m getting to SJPP in the afternoon on September 19th, and hoping to set out before sunrise on the 20th! I’ve been reading recently that September is a very busy time to walk between SJPP and Pamplona. I’m...

Hello all, I am due to arrive in St JP de P late Saturday 23rd September. Initially I was thinking of spending two nights there and starting to walk on the Monday to Roncesvalles. I'm now wondering that maybe I walk to Orisson and stay there the Sunday night, given I have the option (subject to...

Is it in all probability open in late April or is it later in May? And when in all likelihood will the route be closed? I understand weather is unpredictable, and there are no guarantees. But I am wondering what are the odds of it being open in late April, mid-May and so forth.

Traveling to SJPdP with spouse in April ‘24. Discovered online reservation system with calendar. This didn’t exist in’19. Online calendar implies no beds in the month of April. Is this possible!?!

Hello, I am starting my 3rd Camino and bringing my better half along for his first. Does anyone have experience with Hotel des Remparts or Hotel Itzalpea? I'm already finding it harder than the last two Camino's in finding beds. Also, can we do back pack transport from SJPP to Roncesvalles...

Hi I'm walking from SJPDP on 24 April 2024 and I'm keen to get a booking that night at Borda. (My intention is to shorten the first day from SJPDP). I can see Borda is taking bookings at the moment as far as October 2023, so is it my understanding correct that they only take bookings 2 months...
