Hi guys has any one been on the N121a at pamplona up to A63 by Irun.
If so what's it like? or would I be better getting onto the A15.

Good road, we came along that at the beginning of February, coming home. Single carriageway with a load of three lane sections so that you can overtake up and down to get past the big boys.
Saves a lot of miles compared with the detour via the A15

Nice road, much better than it looks on the map!

We tried to stop at Roquefort a few days ago and it was rammed full when we arrived in the early afternoon.
The carpark was packed with cars and there was not a chance of our bus parking anywhere. I thought it might be a free cheese day.
We went on to Lac de Pareloup instead.
You may be OK if yu arrive later in the day when the day trippers have gone home.

Is Roquefort not just a field?

Roquefort sur Soulzon aire is in a carpark on the edge of the cheese village.
There appeared to be a very busy sales outlet plus tourist office there but we couldn't stop to check it out.

A very good road. I recall stopping at a garage for fuel along that road and the attendant even washed my windscreen Sorry, do not recall which garage.

Have you thought about trying the N135 from Pamplona into France? A good road but with a lot of switchbacks. There's a big Aire at St-Jean-Pied-de-Port. Traveled that way with our van and trailer last September and just a couple of weeks ago with the car.

Did think about the route but was not sure what it would be like.

Used the C121a three days ago coming North. As usual, a great route! This year, chose to take the C121B, half way along from Pamplona to San Sebastian, and stopped after 12km at a small free Aire at Otsondo, just before entering France. Rejoined A63 at Bayonne and missed quite a few tolls from the border to Bayonne as a result!

Not to keen on these garage's that wash your windscreen. The last must have had that water in the bucket for some time. Had quite a job cleaning the streaks of the front of the van.

That aire looks nice (and remote) might give it a go if passing.
