Markets in Estella-Lizarra
Navarre, Navarre
Estella-Lizarra has four weekly street markets, making it one of the more active market towns along the Navarre stretch of the Camino de Santiago. The town's trading tradition goes back to 1164, when a Thursday market was established by royal charter. Today that legacy continues across several distinct markets, covering everything from organic produce and artisan cheese to clothing, footwear, and handmade crafts. All four markets run on a weekly schedule, so there is a good chance one will coincide with your visit.

Pamplona, about 45 minutes north, has a broader selection of both street and municipal markets if you want to combine visits.
