Pamplona Guide for Travellers
Pamplona is much more than San Fermín. Capital of the ancient Kingdom of Navarre, this city of just over 200,000 inhabitants offers a perfectly preserved medieval old town, one of the finest gastronomic scenes in northern Spain and a quality of life that surprises everyone who visits. Surrounded by mountains and just an hour from the coast, Pamplona is the ideal starting point for discovering Navarre.
In this guide we have gathered everything you need to know to plan your trip: the most interesting neighbourhoods, how to get here from anywhere in Spain or Europe, what to see, where to eat and where to stay. Practical information written by a local team that knows every corner of the city.
