The Walk to Puente la Reina about 7, 5 km and allows us to visit Santa María de Eunate and the people of Obanos.
This route is fully entered in the route of the French Way from Aragon. Therefore we will be finding signs of the Way in all the way.
Puente de la Reina is the first emblematic enclave of the Camino de Santiago after it is made one from the ramals from Roncesvalles (Navarra) and Somport (Aragon).
It is a monumental villa full of history closely linked to the Camino de Santiago. Its main and most emblematic monument is its Roman bridge of 6 arches.

- The first part of the tour, until it reaches Santa Maria de Eunate, coincides with the route described in A walk to Eunate.
- From Euante we continue on a small upward path and after a small flat stretch we arrive at the confluence with the road N-6064. In this confluence we can choose two possible routes.
- The first alternative tells us to cross the road and visit the village of Obanos.
- It is a section of 2.6 km that goes up to the village and then goes back down until it turns back on the road N-6064.
- We cross the road at this point and follow the signs of the Way that in just over 1 km leads us to the entrance of Puente la Reina.
- The second alternative prevents the visit to Obanos.
- In the confluence with the road N-6064, to which we have arrived after San María de Eunate, we follow with caution the ark of the road in the left direction without leaving it until complete 1, 5 km.
- At this point a well-visible indication of the Way makes us leave the road to a road on the left.
- We follow the Way for 1.5 km and at this point a sign from the Way is moving us towards a small path to the right that crosses through fields of cultivation
- In 325 meters we arrived at the entrance of Puente la Reina.
