sjpp to roncesvalles

Hi, I will be travelling independently from SJPD to Santiago in early April. I want to use Correos to transfer my bag however it appears they only transfer from Roncesvalles. Please can anyone give a suggestion on how to get my bag from SJPDP to Roncesvalles on day one. Many thanks. Nicola.

I hope someone can help me. I have tried to book 4 beds at the Roncesvalles albergue online for May 17 and it looks like it won't take my reservation. My Spanish is not good so I may be missing something. Thank you in advance. Beth from North Dakota

I’m hearing the Camino between Roncevalles and Zubiri is currently covered in snow and you have to walk on the road between the two towns. Anyone currently walking that can give an update?

Anyone with experience road walking Valcarlos to Roncesvalles in snow. The main road is very busy. It was rainy today on our way to Valcarlos but tomorrow there is supposed to be 4 inches of snow. Considering skipping it and starting from Roncesvalles. Thoughts. By the way we don’t take this...

Hi, I’m starting from SJPP on 28th March so have to take the Valcarlos route. Just wondered how easy it is to navigate without walking on the main road the whole time? Is the route signposted at all? I’m heading to Roncesvalles that day. Thanks!

I arrive in SJPDP early on May 1. Planning to hike up to Orrison and return to SJPDP where I have reservations that night. Next day want to get transportation up to Orrison where I’ll continue on to Roncesvalles. Is expressbourricot the only option? How far in advance would I need to make a...

I read through an incredibly long thread about Roncesvalles - all the good and the bad - and many mentioned attending mass. But no one mentioned what time mass is. I also read a thread that was created to specifically answer this question, but again no one actually posted the time. Anways, that...

Looking for advice. I've tried booking into Orisson for a date in mid-May but am having no luck getting a response to either their web page booking service, or an email. I do understand that they are currently closed, but wondering whether anyone is doing their booking admin. I'm only anxious...

Hi. I plan to stop for 2 nights in SJPP before setting off on the 4th May 2023. Looking for somewhere that will allow me to stop 2 nights. Any recommendations? Thank you.

Has anybody made a request for a reservation on the Orisson website, and if so how long before you got confirmation and link for payment.

Hello I am going to walk camino from Roncevalles to Navarette . Can't do the whole thing and this is my 1st time. I have months to prep still and I am 61 in reasonably good shape . I am considering starting in St Jean de Port How difficult is the stretch from St Jean to Roncesvalles ?

I was curious for your opinions about whether or not a stay at the Albergue was something not to be missed for first time pilgrims? I’m really asking about the experience more than anything else. Or is one equally served staying either elsewhere in Roncesvalles or moving on to Burguete? (Based...

Hi everyone, My daughter and I walked the trek from Porto to Santiago last year. Next year we're going to do the Frances route. I'd like to do the challenge of hiking the height of the Pyrenees but would like to break it up into 2 days instead of 1. Also would like to stay in a hotel. Our...

Any Accommodation in SJPdP that is special in some way to start the Camino. I’d love to hear recent recommendations I’m going in May 2023 Thanks Denzil

https://canalperegrino.org/cerrado-el-camino-de-santiago-en-la-frontera-por-incendio-forestal/ Dry conditions remote location. Would be interested in hearing from any pilgrims in the area. I'm 10 days out and long since left SJ.

For four years my goal has been to go from SJPP to Roncesvalles over the pass. Trained for it, did what I thought I needed to do But when a gust of wind nearly blew me over I knew it was time to pack it in. Made it to orisson(which is now closed for renovations) where the friendly owner called...

Hi, Starting my Fall Camino in early November from St Jean. I'm pretty experienced on the Frances and have walked it a number of times before, but all Pre-Covid. I'd really prefer to not have to book ahead (Just my Preference) but hear different things about this since Covid. I'm especially...

I am planning on starting from SJPP 1st week in January. On my last winter camino I walked onto Roncesvalles. This time I plan on stopping overnight in Valcarlos. Does anyone know if there is an albergue in Valcarlos that takes reservations.

Hello fellow pilgrims, I’ve just arrived in SJPP and my plan was to set off for Roncesvalles tomorrow morning via the Napoleon route, potentially stopping at Orisson for the night. However, the people at the pilgrim office have told me it is too dangerous to do the napoleon route until...

My friend and I will be on the Frances at the most popular time to walk - no option for a few reasons. I am reasonably but not super fit for a 70 year old, not keen on crowds. Mostly prefer private accommodation but flexible. Which would you suggest?
