Driving to Quesada

Day 1 to arrive in Calais with overnight stop.
Day 2 to travel from Calais to Pamplona another overnight stop.
Day 3 onward travel to Quesada.
Has any else done the journey in these stages any feedback is appreciated

Have a play around with this route planner, https://www.viamichelin.com/

You'll find that the recommended route for your Calais to Pamplona journey (avoiding Paris) is 1,155km and the estimated driving time is 11 hours 19 mins (not including breaks), plus an estimated 100 euros in tolls.

Our last driving trip, a couple of months ago, was the overnight ferry from Portsmouth to St Malo. Next morning taking the direct route via Nantes & Bordeux to San sebastion, 750km, 7.5 hours driving (9 hours with plenty of stops).

Have a safe trip.

Hi
I have just done Channel Tunnel to calais on to Rouen. Rouen to Pamplona. Pamplona to Quesada
I use B&B and Ibis in France
Coming back i did to Zaragoza Then Zaragoza to Poitiers, Poiters to UK. I use the Norte hotel in Zaragoza and an Iibis in Pamplona
Be careful with mountain routes in winter. May need snow chains

PS Rouen now has an air zone so sat navs will route you round it now

It is easy to apply for a "crit'air" disc.All done on line and posted to your address.Rouen is the latest of several French cities to which the zone applies.

What would you term as winter as travelling on 24th march

March should be fine though
There will be snow on tops but unlikely to snow while driving through

You can go through Perpignan way or San Sebastián which avoid the mountain roads

Going through pau laruns formigal and biescas is so much more scenic

Thanks for all your replies it’s nice to get a 2nd opinion
