Hello folks, I've been through some older threads, but just wanted to check if anyone recently has found a camping/sports type shope in walking distance from the Hospital de Peregrinos de Irún albergue, as I would like to buy trekking poles in Irun before I head off on the Norte soon.
I do have a set already, but I will be taking three flights (!) to get to Spain, and the excess fees are painful.
Thank you.

Thank you. This was my exact question. It looks cold in Bilbao so I may also need a second fleece.

Your timing will be important. The other day when I was walking through Irun I walked right by the shop and noticed that they were closed for siesta.

Saturday afternoons and all day Sunday can be tricky too. In northern Spain, some small towns close down for siesta Saturday and the stores don't open again until Monday.

I got the same message. They must be having issues with their internet server.



Here's the Google Maps info for the store.
