Stage 3. Zubiri – Pamplona (20.4 km)

Information

Today will be a stroll after the previous two. From Zubiri we start with a beautiful stretch along the banks of the river towards Pamplona, walking through wooded paths between beech and pine trees. In addition we will honor a famous saying of the game of the goose: "from bridge to bridge I pull because the current takes me". We will cross the river Arga over the bridges of La Rabia in Zubiri, that of the Bandits in Larrasoaña, Iturgaiz in Irotz and that of La Magdalena until we reach our first big city on the French Way, Pamplona.

Would you like to walk this stage with your accommodation already booked? These organised trips include it: French Way from Roncesvalles to Santiago de Compostela and French Way from Roncesvalles to Logroño.

You leave Zubiri via the iconic Puente de la Rabia and follow the Arga river past medieval bridges and villages steeped in pilgrim tradition, like Larrasoaña. You pass through Villava, birthplace of Miguel Induráin, and the beautiful Trinidad de Arre before crossing the Puente de la Magdalena and entering the old town of Pamplona, alongside its walls.
