Does the Eurail Pass cover “secondary routes’? Calling them ‘secondary’ as they do not show up on the map on the website, but are on the “timetable”, but have a cost listed with it. We wish to go from Barcelona to Pamplona. Thx
Timetable for regional trains?
Yes sure, do not rely on the Interrail/Eurail map : there are hundreds of smaller lines covered.
The validity works by companies. Barcelona - Pamplona is run by RENFE which accept passes so you're good to go.
You'll need a mandatory reservation though, only available at Spanish ticket counters. Probably also possible in Germany if you happen to be there before.
As a tip : Barcelona França station ticket counters are always less busy than Sants station.
What is your travel date ? At busy times last-minute availability may be limited since the frequency is bad. There are more connections via Zaragoza-Delicias in case (first train available online, I'm not sure if the second train requires a reservation).
RENFE is a pain for that reason unfortunately. Only AVE high-speed trains are offered on interrail.eu/eurail.com. :(
+6Reservations for Renfe Alvia (and Euromed and AVE) trains are also available through the interrail reservations portal, so the Barcelona to Pamplona seat reservation can be booked online.
