Qui il tempo sembra essersi fermato dal 1924, quando Ernest Hemingway vi soggiornò. Era in viaggio per pescare; di sicuro prese qualcuna delle trote che nuotano nelle acque di questi fiumi e che, fortunatamente per noi, finiscono tutt’ora sulle tavole dei locali del posto.

L’architettura qui è tipicamente basca: enormi case familiari plurigenerazionali con un nome o uno stemma esposto sopra la porta.

Ci sono diversi bar carini, a riprova del fatto che la prima tazza di caffè su cui vi imbattete in paese potrebbe non essere la migliore. C’è anche un panificio-bar oltre la curva sotto citata.

Festività

San Juan si festeggia il 24 e il 26 giugno. Altre festività sono quella dell’Arte la seconda domenica di agosto e quella dell’Agricoltura l’ultima domenica di settembre.

Il cammino

State attenti quando attraversate il paese, poiché a metà tragitto il cammino devia bruscamente a destra. Ci sono almeno dodici frecce gialle che indicano la curva, ma potrebbe comunque sfuggire a chi è incantato nell’ammirare Burguete.

Very happy I stayed here. Clean bright and spacious with very kind staff. Lower bunks don’t have enough headroom so opt for an upper if you can. Local pilgrims menus available in 2 or 3 spots and I enjoyed the one I went to.

Stayed May 2024. Still big clean well laid out with kind hosts and good food options nearby. Nice.

A lively popular place in the heart of the village. Beer, generous measures of wine, pizzas and a Pilgrim's Menu for 12€. Great!

Our stay here in a private room with bathroom, for 50 euro, was just what we needed after coming down the Pyrenees. The owner was so helpful and accommodating, even offered to drive us to Roncesvalles for dinner when we discovered the only restaurant open was the hotel which didn’t open until 8. The hotel meal was good and cheap though.

When I reached here, I found none of the restaurants open at supper time, all I had to do was waiting for the meal the hotel provided at 8, it was quite late for pilgrim, but meal was savory and worth for waiting. Also saw the piano which told to be used by Hemingway.

Stayed in Burgette in March 2022. Recommend staying at Lorentx albergue. New, clean, big, kind hosts and heated floors. Grocery store was well stocked. Dinner at the bar near the church was easy.
