Pamplona, Spain
Pamplona, the capital of Navarra, has around 350,000 inhabitants. It is a city that blends modernity and tradition. A peaceful city with emblematic places, marked by the Festival of San Fermin and the Pilgrim's Way to Santiago. Calle Estafeta recreates the tension of the Encierro (Bull Run) and the Romanesque bridge of La Magdalena, at the foot of the city walls, is the first to welcome pilgrims to the city. More information about Pamplona and the Navarre region of Spain can be found at University of Navarra's website.

EXCURSIONS

Independent excursions at your own cost – there are none included in the program.  There are 6 international airports less than an hour distance from Pamplona. It is located about an hour and a half away from Candanchu where hiking and skiing are popular sports. One hour from the Cantabrian beaches. 

There is a buddy program available for all exchange students. The International Relations Office hosts events through the semester and is available to assist students with their diverse needs.
