Some of you finish your Camino in France (Voie du Puy, Vézelay…) by the stage of St Jean Pied de Port – Roncesvalles. It is preferable to do this stage after training for several days, rather than planning it as the first stage of the following year. If you sleep in Ultreïa, you can leave your large backpack at the hostel, we will lend you a smaller one for the climb and you can sleep with us again in the evening if you wish.
To return from Roncevaux, there are many possibilities:
Hitchhiking
Which works very well in summer with tourists who are delighted to talk with pilgrims.
The bus from Pamplona
