Amenities
Strategically located, a stone’s throw from the church, our hostel is one of the oldest houses in the old town.
Fully restored and redesigned, this beautiful four-storey house is today a comfortable and warm accommodation for 15 people.
As walkers and former pilgrims, we wanted a cozy and friendly atmosphere. It is our house and is furnished and equipped like any other house, with the intention of welcoming you during your overnight stop or more, to rest, share experiences and meet other walkers.
At the foot of the hostel, in the alleys of the village, you will find restaurants, stores and all the services in the small fortified village.

In the surrounding area
“In the Basque Country, the road to Santiago crosses a very remarkable mountain that they call Puerto de Cize… To pass it, it is eight miles uphill and as much downhill. Indeed, this mountain is so high that it seems to touch the sky; he who makes the ascent thinks he is able to touch the sky with his own hand...”
It is like that, but of course in Latin, that the French monk Aimery Picaud, described this stage in the first “Pilgrim’s Guide” ever written, and that in the year 1135!
Millions of pilgrims later, the mountain is in the same place and the pilgrim is confronted with the same crossing to Roncesvalles. We must not close our eyes, the stage is serious with its 27 kilometers and 1200 m of elevation gain. But we will be there to prepare it with you, comment on it and thus help you to transform this legendary and wonderful stage into a great moment.
