I am off in three weeks ( April 25 or 26) and will not be able to walk up to Roncevalles but would like to start my Camino from there as the walk seems beautiful and is a place Ive always wanted to go to (Roland and Charlemagne) . I have two weeks for my walk in 2023 and expect to be finishing part 1 in Burgos this year. Next year will have more time and complete my Camino. Any pointers as to find the best budget-wise ride from SJPP to Roncevalles. I am looking forward to this adventure. (65 living in Canada) Thanks

follow the link (and change the date.) bus will cost you 5 euros.

why do you plan to travel to StJPP if you want to start in Roncesvalles? no Spaniard will do that.

Thank you for your information. I have contacted them but found their price a bit steep.
Buen Camino

I took the valcarlos route 5 years ago during spring, it was lovely, and not crowded at all, maybe can explore this option. But after Valcarlos it's still a bit to climb before reaching Roncesvalles.
May I know how much is the shuttle?
