Stage
Ease of walking: Moderate with rolling hills and a mix of tarmac and dirt tracks; some short climbs into the foothills.
From Navarrenx the Camino passes through Basque-influenced countryside and reaches Saint-Palais, a traditional market town used by pilgrims as a staging point. Expect a mixture of rural lanes, farms and small villages along the way.
Green pastures, hedgerows and Basque-style farmhouses with distant views of the Pyrenean foothills.
Pilgrims will find drinking water fountains (fuentes), public taps and springs in most villages and at points along the way. In summer and on remote stretches, carry enough water between stops as gaps can be long.
