The full journey took place over the course of a month, from 26 April to 26 May 2022.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In this video, Jhonatan shares his experience on this leg of the journey, exploring one of the 13th-century Romanesque portals that shows a truly striking image of two pilgrims sharing a moment together. This particular stretch was one of the most meaningful for him, as he walked those 30 kilometres mostly surrounded by picturesque vineyards, which added a special charm to his walk. Jhonatan hopes you enjoy this part of his adventure on the Camino de Santiago and that, at least for a few moments, you feel transported through his experiences on this beautiful trail full of history and spirituality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\">Stage 8: Logro\u00f1o to Najera <strong>with Jhonatan Barrios<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Jhonatan Barrios left the Santiago Real hostel in <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/caminodesantiagofrances.com\/en\/la-rioja\/logrono\/\" data-type=\"page\" data-id=\"11211\">Logro\u00f1o<\/a><\/strong> and headed towards <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/caminodesantiagofrances.com\/en\/la-rioja\/najera\/\" data-type=\"page\" data-id=\"11241\">N\u00e1jera<\/a><\/strong>. This was his eighth stage, 30 kilometres long, which he hoped to complete in five and a half hours. It rained at dawn, but once it stopped, he took the opportunity to set off. The experience at the parish hostel was a valuable one, as it ran on a donation basis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">On his way to <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/caminodesantiagofrances.com\/en\/la-rioja\/najera\/\" data-type=\"page\" data-id=\"11241\">N\u00e1jera<\/a><\/strong>, Jhonatan admired the scenery and felt he could see himself in a pilgrim statue. He recalled the night before in Logro\u00f1o, where he shared a communal dinner at the Santiago Real parish hostel and met several <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/caminodesantiagofrances.com\/en\/pilgrims\/\" data-type=\"page\" data-id=\"5880\">pilgrims<\/a><\/strong> from different countries. Among them was a group of Argentinians cycling the Camino, completing it in 15 days, which he found interesting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Along the way, he crossed a large park and headed onto the path out of the city of Logro\u00f1o. Although his camera ran out of battery, Jhonatan recalled the ruins of the old medieval pilgrim hospital of San Juan de Acre, founded in 1185. On the way out of <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/caminodesantiagofrances.com\/en\/la-rioja\/navarrete\/\" data-type=\"page\" data-id=\"11223\">Navarrete<\/a><\/strong>, he noticed the Romanesque facade and some of the windows from the hospital, which were rescued and relocated by the architect Luis Barr\u00f3n.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Jhonatan also met Marcelino, a resident of <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/caminodesantiagofrances.com\/en\/la-rioja\/logrono\/\" data-type=\"page\" data-id=\"11211\">Logro\u00f1o<\/a><\/strong> who told stories about the Camino and showed him a sculpture in a local cemetery depicting two pilgrims sharing bread and wine. After leaving the cemetery, he continued walking among vineyards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">On reaching Ventosa, he made a short stop to rest and have something to eat. He continued on towards <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/caminodesantiagofrances.com\/en\/la-rioja\/najera\/\" data-type=\"page\" data-id=\"11241\">N\u00e1jera<\/a><\/strong>, accompanied by the barley, wheat and vineyard fields characteristic of <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/caminodesantiagofrances.com\/en\/la-rioja\/\" data-type=\"page\" data-id=\"5494\">La Rioja<\/a><\/strong>. Although the going was tricky in muddy stretches, he finally reached N\u00e1jera, where he crossed the Najerilla river and made his way to the private hostel where he would be staying that night.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The hostel caught his attention as an old house, built in 1905, that had previously been a bank. He planned to explore the centre of <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/caminodesantiagofrances.com\/en\/la-rioja\/najera\/\" data-type=\"page\" data-id=\"11241\">N\u00e1jera<\/a><\/strong> and visit the Gothic monastery of Santa Mar\u00eda la Real, although it was under renovation. Jhonatan, with a sore throat, decided to buy an anti-inflammatory and cough syrup, then had a kebab for dinner with a group of pilgrims he met in the centre of N\u00e1jera. The ninth stage of the Camino awaited him the next day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\"><strong>\u00a1Buen Camino, pilgrims!<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n<p><nav aria-label=\"breadcrumbs\" class=\"rank-math-breadcrumb\"><p><span class=\"last\">Camino de Santiago Frances<\/span><\/p><\/nav><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/@JhonatanBarriosBustos\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/@JhonatanBarriosBustos\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Video Stage 8: Logro\u00f1o to Najera | Camino Frances with Jhonatan Barrios Video Stage 8: Logro\u00f1o to Najera | Camino de Santiago Frances with Jhonatan Barrios Jhonatan Barrios shares Stage 8 of the Camino de Santiago Frances, which runs from Logro\u00f1o to N\u00e1jera, covering a distance of 30 kilometres.
