Hi
I will be walking the Camino del Norte - with 2 friends from late August 2025. We will be flying from Melbourne to Paris and then to Biarritz airport.
We are keen to get some help re how to get from Biarritz airport to Irun, using public transport, either train or buses.
Many thanks for your support
Jose

If you have two extra days start walking from Biarritz! It's a marked Camimo route with albergues. You get a couple of days of fairly flat terrain before the climbs begin in Spain.

Thanks Trecile, but we do not have the 2 extra days. We will be doing the Camino del Norte and the Primitivo.

I believe there might be a bus from Biarritz airport to Hendaye. Can anyone confirm this?

Search Rome2Rio or Omio. You can buy bus tickets on the Omio site but it too early to view the schedule. There are trains as well that take you to Hendaye. If you do chose the bus I suggest buying a ticket in advance because the bus drivers do no sell tickets. The last time I took the bus to SS, it was completely full of passengers coming from previous stops and the bus driver refused to allow passengers board without tickets. The Biarritz train station is a short walk, cab ride or bus ride from the airport.

If you do take the train to Hendaye, just turn right as you come out of the station, head up a slight slope, and you'll see a bridge to your right. Cross that and you're in Irun.

In 2018 my wife and I we got off a plane in Biarritz. When we walked out of the airport there was bus to Hendaye leaving in 5mins. Not planned but a great start to our CN.

I find that statement a little worrying. You are planning to walk some 750km and you've no slack in your timetable. Or is that two days from Biarritz the slack that you have?
