The monastery of Roncesvalles is one of the first important pilgrimage sites on the Camino Francés after crossing the Pyrenees. Pilgrims can also find accommodation here for the night in a monastic atmosphere - an experience not to be missed on the Camino.

What is so special about this place that thousands of people visit every year, lost, as it is, in the Navarrese Pyrenees, in a village of 20 inhabitants that time seems to have forgotten?
Maybe that's part of its charm. The abundance of grass, the sound of cowbells and the fog and zirimiri (drizzle) give it that mystique that we find so attractive.
All that and the mythical defeat of Charlemagne, the treasures of a rich artistic heritage and, of course, everything that comes with being the gateway to Spain's Way of Saint James.
But if we had to pick two words to define Orreaga/Roncesvalles they would be: Fusion of culture and landscape.
