Overview

Trip highlights

  • Walking through stunning scenery
  • Experiencing the history of the trail marked by crosses, statues and grain silos
  • Exploring the fascinating town of Pamplona
  • Enjoying the camaraderie of fellow hikers and pilgrims

An ideal way to experience the rhythm of the Camino is on this short stage from Pamplona to Logrono in the Rioja region. Along the way pass by the markings of the trail in the form of small chapels, crosses and villages which support the pilgrimage both spiritually and practically. Soaking up the camaraderie on the trail will have you planning your next Camino as you walk amongst grapevines and through small hamlets to the sounds of "buen Camino" and the footsteps of your fellow pilgrims. With your luggage transferred daily you are free to relax into the pace of the trail and take in the sights on the way to your next hotel. At night stay in specially chosen hotels where dinner and a friendly smile awaits.

Make your own way to the hotel in Pamplona. This historical city has lots to offer so allow plenty of time this afternoon to explore. You can visit the cathedral or the Museo de Navarra. Dinner is not included tonight so you are free to sample the delicious pintxos.

Meals:  Nil

Leaving Pamplona you make your way to the Jacobite city of Puente la Reina, a city of museums. From the main square you will be able to see the Camino signs to navigate your way out of Pamplona. The route takes you from the old town to walk through parks in the modern part of the city before the landscape opens out. You can take a short detour that will allow you to view the octagonal chapel of Eucate, one of the Roman jewels of the trail of Aragon. A steep climb passing the wind farms of Zariquiegui takes you out of the Pamplona basin. You will then descend to your hotel in Puente la Reina. Distance 22km/13.7mi

Meals:  B,D

On this stage you will walk through the countryside with olive, almond and oak trees. The route follows the banks for the Agra River where you can see the township of Bargota which was inhabited until the 11th Century by the mission of the Orden del Temple and later, the Hospital of St John. From here you follow a sheltered path to Maneur through an agricultural landscape of crop fields, vineyards and wooded areas before arriving in Estella. Distance 21km/13mi

Meals:  B,D

This stage allows a detour to discover the imposing Irache Monastery and its wine fountain – where you can choose to fill your water bottles with either wine or water! Today’s walk is mainly through open fields, you will not pass through any villages reaching Los Arcos early in the afternoon. This is a very small town with a couple of cafes/bars. Distance 22km/13.7mi

Meals:  B,D

Your last day's walk passes many places of historic interest as you walk from Navarre to the well-known wine region of La Rioja. Not far into the walk you will reach the village of Sansol where you can stop to buy some refreshments or lunch before crossing the San Pedro River and continuing through farmlands and on to Logroño. You will walk around the town before descending to the stone bridge which leads the way into Logroño, the provincial capital. Distance 27km/16.8mi

Grading

moderate  

Daily walks are between 21-27km on well marked trails over diverse terrain – from relatively flat to mountainous. Some of the route is on paved surfaces – you should pay particular attention to your footwear to ensure that it is suitable to avoid blisters. This is a well worn path where route finding will be reasonably straightforward (refer below for further details on self guided adventures). The main areas to concentrate on route finding are arriving and leaving towns and cities. The accent is on keeping a steady pace to take in all of the attractions, with time to stop and take photos. You will need a good level of fitness to participate fully in this adventure. Taxi and bus services operate between towns in the event that you are unable to walk on a particular day.
