  Irache - La fuente del vino.
The first population that the pilgrim finds, after passing through a powerboat and taking a track of earth, is Ayegui and at the exit it has two options to consider: first to follow straight line until Azqueta, and the second to the left takes to the Monastery of Irache. The pilgrim does not have to doubt it, because not to pass through the only source in the world that gives wine instead of water and to visit the monastery of Irache, almost it could be considered a sin.

To follow the way during one hour, after crossing the highway of Irache, by a stony route, to arrive at Azqueta: a small town that does not offer services, but a beautiful fresh water source and banks in the seat, conform an excellent place for the rest of the pilgrim.

After passing through a working cattle and crossing vines, arrives at the medieval source from century XIII with a double arc of average point, also well-known like the source "of the Moors". We advised to rest and to refresh in this source and to get some water in Villamayor de Monjardín, that is the next village.

A long walk of three hours by good and well marked ways, but very monotonous and with the only company of the silence and the solitude, until to arrive at Arcos. The pilgrim does not see the town of Arcos because it is covered by a little hill, the source that is located at the entrance, is like a blessing of the sky and only few pilgrims pass without refreshing in it and recovering a little the breath.
