Albergue Mesón del Camino
The last epata of the French Way from Aragon

The last epata of the French Way from Aragon

We describe this route, with its different travel options, both for people who want to realize it as a knowledge experience of the Way of Santiago, and for people who are making the Way in their way through this stretch.

This last stage of the French road from Aragon can be structured in different ways depending on the distance you want to approach.

The most extensive, almost 31 km, is the one that has been Monreal a Puente la Reinathrough several locations, including Enérizwhere our Albergue is.

A good option for those who have enough time, is to make this route in two days, ending the first in Tiebas and the second opting to end up in Enériz or follow to Puente la Reina.

Whatever option is chosen, it is a route with varied sections and some levels that allows us to live, in full nature, the experience of a beautiful and lonely path. It is fully part of the route of the French Way from Aragon and we can therefore get information about it from different sources. During the journey we will be finding signs of the Way of Santiago.
