Camino de Santiago

From Gata de Gorgos to Luzaide

First day of the trip; we left Gata de Gorgos heading to Luzaide, crossing the provinces of Teruel, Zaragoza, and Navarra to end up on a beautiful mountain road at the foot of the Navarre Pyrenees 😍.

1ª Etapa; Saint Joan Pied de Port - Roncesvalles

We have dived headfirst into the second stage of the Camino and faced thirty-five degrees during it, despite having woken up at an ungodly hour to avoid the heat...

2º Stage; Roncesvalles - Zuribi

Even though we felt tired from yesterday and the temperatures are still outrageous, we gave it our all this morning.

3ª Stage; Zubiri - Pamplona - Puente de la Reina

We move forward against all odds. It is very rewarding to see how we leave one kilometer after another behind us.

4th Stage; Puente de la Reina - Estella

The idea is always to leave as early as possible to finish before the sun fries your brain.

5th Stage; Estella - Los Arcos

"For my part, I do not travel to go anywhere, but to travel. I travel for the sake of traveling. The important thing is to move." (Robert Louis Stevenson)

6th Stage; Los Arcos - Logroño

"The Camino gives you what you need, not what you seek..." (Popular Jacobean saying)

7th Stage; Los Arcos - Logroño

"What matters is not arriving in Santiago, but who you are upon arrival." (Popular tradition)

8th Stage; Nájera - Santo Domingo de la Calzada

"Buen camino," the greeting of today that wishes strength and joy to other pilgrims. "Ultreia et Suseia," an ancient phrase in Latin that means "let's go there" or "keep going towards the highest." (Reflections on the Camino)
