Even though it was a rainy and gross day, King Felipe VI of Spain and his wife, Queen Letizia of Spain, made the most of their time at Alto de Ibaneta — "a high mountain pass in the Pyrenees near the border between France and Spain."
During their outing, the couple presided over the commemoration of the Jacobean Year 2021-2022, which took place in the Navarra town of Roncesvalles, "a favorite resting place for Catholic pilgrims along the French Way path."

The duo was photographed walking through a section of the Camino de Santiago (the Way of Saint Saint James). Later on, they went through the Church of Santa María and the Collegiate Church of Roncesvalles.
Clad in a beige jumpsuit, the brunette beauty held on tight to her walking stick as she made her way through the grass.
The visit ended at the Chapel of San Agustín, where a floral offering was made in front of the tomb of the King of Navarre.
The pair had a lot of people they needed to chat with, including the President of Navarra, Maria Chivite, President of La Rioja, Concha Andreu, President of Galicia, Alberto Nunez Feijoo, President of Castilla y Leon, Alfonso Fernandez Manueco, and President of Cantabria, Miguel Angel Revilla.
The father-of-two donned a blue rain coat with gray pants for the occasion. While the Queen usually wears heels during events, she opted for flats instead.
Many people commented on their low-key looks. One person wrote, "Lovely," while another added, "I love our Royal family."
A third user added, "LONG LIVE THE KING and QUEEN."
Next up, King Felipe attended another event in Murcia, Spain, where he looked dapper in a blue uniform.
