Hike the first stage of the Camino de Santiago, from St Jean which straddles the French and Spanish border, to Logroño in the famous wine-growing region of Rioja. Undoubtedly the toughest stage of the whole Camino de Santiago, but one filled with rewards. Walk through the high mountains and deep valleys of the Pyrenees, before crossing through undulating plains and olive groves. Added to this are overnight stays in a couple of Northern Spain’s most beguiling cities and towns, including Pamplona and Logrono.
