Magical place, one of my favorite French villages

It is a typical small village in Iparralde, right next to the main town Sant-Jean-Pied-Port-de-Port. There is nothing special about it, but if you pass by it, you should enjoy it. There is a nice fountain in the centre of the village.

The old fortress is worth exploring before you leave

A great old fortress to explore with fabulous views towards the mountains

The starting point of the Camino Frances. Many pilgrims start from here and are so excited that they can't really enjoy the beautiful town.

The city is located at the base of the Pyrenees, hence the name “at the foot of the pass”. Starting point of the suggestive French Way of St. James of Compostela, This city is the capital of the historic Basque province of Navarra, Lower Navarra, is located on the River Nive, just 8 kilometers from the Spanish border. The medieval city is located at the crossroads of the roads that serve the Basque Country.

The French feeder route Via Podiensis ends in Saint-Jean-Pied-de-Port. The most famous Way of St. James, the Camino Francés, starts here. The suffix explains what the pilgrims can expect: Pied de Port means “at the foot of the pass”. From here, the Camino Francés leads 25 kilometers over the ridge of the Pyrenees to Roncesvalles in Spain. The pilgrims also follow in the footsteps of Charlemagne, who in 778 reached Spain over the Ibañeta Pass (Puerto de Ibañeta or Col de Roncevaux) at an altitude of 1,057 meters during his campaign. It doesn't get colder than up there at the top of the pass on the entire Way of St. James.
