The “Pilgrim´s Guide”, contained in the Codex Calixtinus which is preserved in the library of Santiago cathedral, written by the Frenchman Aymeric Picaud around 1130, is a compulsory reference when talking about the ancient French Route. The French Route begins in Somport or Roncesvalles, depending on whether access is via the Aragonese or Navarre route. For pilgrims starting from Somport, Jaca will be the first stop. For those entering via Roncesvalles, remember that this place still echoes to the sound of the famous Olifante de Roldán, the hero of the 'Chanson de Roland' in his desperate call for help. Pamplona is the first provincial capital on the Santiago route which you will meet on this section.
