If you ask the locals, or don’t since they will none-the-less volunteer their opinion, Munitibar is the very heart of the Basque country. It kind of feels that way too.

History

The old trading routes once passed through here, sending wool and wine from Logroño up to the sea while hauling back fish on the return trip.

The Road

After crossing the main square in Munitibar, the camino turns left at the church to follow the main road out of town, though only for a short distance. Less than 50m beyond the river it turns left up a side road, climbing up to and beyond the Ermita de Santiago. From the ermita it descends towards Olabe.

Both around 120m in opposite direction to Camino. Shop closes at 2pm. Amazing tortilla in cafe/bar.

We recommend stopping at the bar cafe: lovely owner, very good beer selection and they have the best pintxos I have ever tasted. blueK
