La tienda de comestibles tiene un horario mínimo y existencias, pero abre temprano para el desayuno.

Al igual que ZubiriLarrasoaña tiene un puente que es bien conocido, aunque por razones menos beneficiosas. En lugar de curarse, era un punto frecuente de bandidaje; el nombre del puente es Puente de los Bandidos. Este es un concepto importante a tener en cuenta si te encuentras tratando de imaginar la vida de un peregrino medieval. En toda España aparecen historias de bandidaje, y cuando lo hacen, la mayoría de las veces hay un río involucrado.

Los peregrinos modernos difícilmente pueden quejarse del estado de los cruces de ríos, pero el peregrino medieval se encontraría con frecuencia (dependiendo del siglo) con una situación más difícil. Los ríos en sí crecen en tamaño a medida que continúas hacia el oeste, y algunos de ellos se ven bastante desalentadores. Eran una opción natural para una multitud más nefasta que buscaba explotar a los peregrinos.

Un puente, sea cual sea su diseño o edad, es algo maravilloso.

History

Larrasoaña tiene una larga historia de hospitalidad a los peregrinos; aunque no lo adivinarías por su estado actual. Un monasterio agustino y dos hospicios para peregrinos sirvieron a la peregrinación durante la mayor parte de 8 siglos. Lamentablemente, queda poco. Dos capillas, dedicadas a St. Blaise St. Santiago, son todo lo que existen de las una vez grandes y poderosas hermandades dedicadas al cuidado de peregrinos que una vez existieron aquí y que hicieron de Larrasoaña una parada importante en el camino.

Almari is found about 300m on the right of the first road in Larrasoana. Oliver the owner is a pilgrim in excess of 15 times. He warmly
welcomed me, and was helpful in arranging my accommodation. Ate a tasty Paella accompanied with white wone. There are lots of perishables and not perishables for sale.

Cafe Amari is closed for the winter. Save yourself the walk.

Cross into Larrosoana go over the bridge and take first right turn and walk 300m to Cafe Amari. A massive welcome awaits you from Olivier, who serves a breakfast Tea/Coffee, Croissants (early birds) Toast and Orange juice with the spirit of the Camino.

I stayed here in early September and it was a great experience. Kind hosts, comfortable and clean facilities, a wonderful pilgrims menu. I would recommend.

Cafe Amari is open, cross the bridge go to the main road and walk about 300 metres. We knew it was open as he has a car parked on the Camino side of the bridge advertising the cafe. Very welcoming cafe owner.

We walked from Zubiri with the intention of having a late breakfast at Larrasoaña!
Unfortunately it was closed, meaning that we had to walk on another 3.5kms to the next town.
Don't bank on it to be open.
