Walking the Camino de Santiago: from St Jean Pied de Port to Pamplona

Over 20,000 pilgrims start the Camino de Santiago in St Jean Pied de Port every year, making this picturesque town at the foot of the Pyrenees the Camino second most popular starting point (after Sarria).

Saint Jean marks the starting point of the so called Camino Francés, the French Way route of the Camino de Santiago. This first section starts in St Jean Pied de Port, crosses the Pyrenees reaching the Roncesvalles Pass and finishes in the bustling city of Pamplona, famous around the globe for its bull run, San Fermín.

This is probably the most challenging section of the Camino de Santiago (on the French Way) but the views of the Pyrenees along Route Napoleón are worth the effort.
