Loyola and Javier
Two castles, two conversions.
The Holy House of Loyola and the Castle of Javier, on the Ignatian route in the north. The itinerary links the two places most closely tied to Saint Ignatius and Saint Francis Xavier, with pastoral and biographical content. The short distances allow it to be visited calmly in two or three days. It is a proposal highly valued by Ignatian schools and communities.
Suggested length
2 to 4 days
Best season
De abril a octubre; las Javieradas se celebran en marzo.
Group profile
Colegios, grupos ignacianos, parroquias y grupos de formación.
The destination, in detail

It can be complemented with Manresa and Saint Ignatius' Cave, with Montserrat or with Pamplona and the Camino.
