The bridge leading out of St. Jean Pied-de-Port, France at the foot of the Pyrenees. This is the starting point just outside of Spain for the Camino de Santiago that will run nearly 800 kilometers to Santiago de Compostela near the Atlantic Ocean. The first day of the walk will be over the Pyrenees, to the high point of the Col de Lepoeder at 1450 meters above sea level, to reach the Spanish town of Roncesvalles on the other side.
