Albergue Parroquial de Belorado in Belorado

Overview

Albergue Parroquial de Belorado is a donativo parochial albergue offering accommodation exclusively for pilgrims with a credential on the Camino Francés. Located beside the Iglesia de Santa María in the centre of Belorado, this Camino de Santiago albergue was renovated in 2016 inside the town’s former theatre. It offers 20 beds, a fully equipped kitchen, communal dining area, hot showers, laundry facilities, covered bike storage, and computer access. In addition, the original theatre stage is now used as the kitchen. Daily Eucharist and pilgrim blessings are also held. The albergue operates on a donation basis and stays open from 1 April to 31 October.

Ideally located directly on the Camino Francés in Belorado, the albergue keeps Plaza Mayor, restaurants, shops, and pilgrim services within easy walking distance. Furthermore, the medieval cave hermitages above the town can be reached on foot.

Pilgrim Insight

Albergue Parroquial de Belorado is one of the most unique parochial albergues on the Camino de Santiago. The former theatre setting creates a memorable atmosphere for pilgrims walking the Camino Francés. The old stage is now a kitchen. Meanwhile, the former auditorium serves as a communal dining room for pilgrims. In addition, the volunteer Swiss hospitaleros are widely praised for their warm Camino hospitality. The evening pilgrim blessing is also open to walkers of all faiths and backgrounds.

Note: no advance reservations are accepted, so beds are allocated first-come, first-served. Additionally, a pilgrim credential is required to stay. If the albergue appears closed on arrival, pilgrims should enquire at the Casa Parroquial on Plaza de San Francisco.
