NEWS FROM PENNY AND MIKE

Camino Day 1


ST JEAN PIED DE PORT (France) to IBANETA PASS (Spain) and back

22.9.22 – An uphill climb most of the way from Fronton Aire where we were camping (11€) to Ibaneta on the sunniest of days. 33 miles there and back, we took the cycle and road route rather than the walking route. There was hardly any traffic but lots of hairpin bends as we cycled higher and higher up into the Pyrenees. Ibaneta is the lowest pass over the mountains at 1057 metres and is just over the border in Spain, although there was no visible border other than some duty free shops.
