zaurutz albergue

[viajero]

I am on the NOrte now and there is a pilgrims albergue in Zaurutz. It opened on june 21 ( i don´t know if it opened for the season or is brand new). I went to the tourist office and asked for the pilgrim albergue but they assured me there wasn´t one so I stayed at the youth hostel which is nice but at 20.33 euros/bed is quite steep. The next day, I learned from other pilgrims that there is an albergue. They said it was on the camino a couple of blocks back from the beach. Not too far (about 50 meters) from the famous restaurant with the famous chef in Zaurutz on the beach (sorry can´t think of his name). It doesn´t open ´til 4 each day. I think they said it was in some sort of art school.

The famous chef is Karlos Arguiñano. He decided to open a Restaurant (it's also a Hotel) in his town, where he was born, better than in Bilbao, Madrid or New York.

The albergue opens every summer, very close this famous Restaurant.

Buen Camino,
