D7-Puente la Reina to Estella

We left Puente La Reina this morning looking back at the Historical bridge over the River Arga. Apparently the bridge was built for pilgrims in the 11th century. We take a right following the yellow arrows up along past the River Arga and then we start our climb upwards, there is good views back over Puente La Reina from up top. We stop at Mañeru for our first coffee of the day. We then continue and pass vineyards, olive trees and many wild flowers, the countryside is just so beautiful. The next village we go through is Cirauqui with its narrow cobbled streets and what a climb it was to get to the top. The church of San Roman stands at the highest point. We then make our way down the other side and make our way towards Estella. We stop at the village of Lorca for coffee and eat our picnic lunch (ham and cheese roll). We carried on to Estella, registered at Albergue Municipal de Perigrinos, showered then went out exploring. We picked up some pasta meals at the supermarket and had dinner at the Albergue.En savoir plus
