  • WALKING CAMINO IGNACIANO I Began
    WALKING CAMINO IGNACIANO www.caminoignaciano.org I began walking Camino Ignaciano in 2007, departing Loyola on November 7, 2007 reaching Manresa on December 7 and Barcelona on December 12. In 2011, I made the decision to re-walk the section of the Camino from Loyola to Logrono because I wanted to follow Ignatius’ route more closely than I had originally done in 2007. The following is my blog of the 2011 journey from Loyola to Logrono. While, officially, Camino Ignaciano begins in Loyola I began my walk in Pamplona, from the spot where Ignatius fell wounded in May 1521. While I was walking I let myself imagine that I am part of the 1521 stretcher party detailed by the victorious French to take Ignatius back to his home, talking to him as I walked. Thus, Ignatius became more present to me. Day1: Friday August 26, 2011. Belfast to San Sebastian. Arrived Biarritz Airport. Took the C bus to Gare de Biarritz (€1), a 10 minute journey away. Purchased a ticket for Hendaye (€5.40) and got the 16.18 train to Hendaye which took 20 minutes. Exited the station and found the TOPO within 50 meters of the station. TOPO is the train which goes from France to Spain (San Sebastian). Cost €1.60. Arrived San Sebastian, found the Tourist Office (and the information I required) and then headed to my university accommodation by bus. All so easy despite my initial uncertainty and anxiety! Had a nice dinner and ready for Pamplona next day. Day2: Saturday August 27, 2011. (San Sebastian to) Pamplona to Irurtzun Up at 7am and exited accommodation by 8am.
