Before you go: Logroño tips

Transportation

  • Arrive by train or bus: Logrono's combined Renfe station and bus terminal sit south of the centre, linking to Madrid, Bilbao, Zaragoza and Pamplona.
  • Walk the compact centre: The old town, Calle Laurel and the Ebro riverside are all walkable from most hotels.
  • Rent a car for Rioja wineries: Haro, Laguardia and San Millan de la Cogolla are much easier to reach by car or organised tour.

Security

  • Mind bags in busy bars: Calle Laurel gets packed on weekend nights; keep phones and wallets close.
  • Watch out on the Camino: Pilgrims on the Camino de Santiago pass through; keep valuables secure in albergues.
  • Drink water between pinchos: Rioja wine flows freely on tapas crawls; pace yourself and plan your way home.

Saving

  • Do the pincho crawl: On Calle Laurel and Calle San Juan each bar has one signature pincho with a glass of wine at low prices.
  • Order a crianza by the glass: Local Rioja wines by the glass are cheap and good; no need to buy bottles in restaurants.
  • Choose the menu del dia: Weekday lunch menus with three courses and wine offer great value.

Weather/Clothing

  • Expect hot dry summers: July and August are hot; plan visits early or late in the day.
  • Pack a coat for cold winters: Winters are chilly with frosty nights.
  • Bring layers for harvest season: September and October are pleasant but evenings cool down.

Cultural

  • Join the San Mateo festival: The September wine harvest festival includes grape treading and parades.
  • Visit the Concatedral de Santa Maria de la Redonda: Its twin baroque towers dominate the old town.
  • Try local specialties: Champinones a la plancha at Bar Angel and patatas a la riojana are local classics.

Local Hacks

  • Go out late: Pincho bars fill from around 8pm and stay busy late.
  • Visit bodegas near town: Some wineries are a short drive from the city centre.
  • Walk the Ebro river parks: Riverside paths are great for a morning stroll.
