Mompía is a collection of residential neighborhoods and a hospital with little to detain you. Be warned: the local utility company has taken to marking their infrastructure with yellow arrows that look alarmingly like camino waymarks. Their arrows are drawn upside down with the arrowhead at the bottom and usually include a bend and adjacent numbers — but in the field, the confusion is real.
It is near Mompía that the local utility company has taken to marking their services with yellow arrows. As you would imagine this creates a bit of confusion and it might lead you astray if you are not paying enough attention. Although the yellow is the same their orientation is usually not; they are drawn upside down with the arrowhead at the bottom. They almost alway involve a bend in the arrow, and they are adjacent to a series of stenciled numbers.
La Virgen del Rosario is celebrated on the first Sunday of October.
The road into Mompía ends and the camino turns left past several residential areas, the Mortera train station, and the Mompía hospital. Past the hospital it turns right at the roundabout. When it gets to the Barrio Vivero it leaves this road for another on the right.

We are having a lovely evening in the beautiful new hostel in Mompia. We paid approx €50 euros to stay in a lovely private double bedroom, but also
had the option of a €20 euro bunk. The hostel
is modern throughout and we paid extra for a breakfast and to do our washing. A much needed luxury after a hard week on the Camino del Norte! We would definitely recommend to fellow pilgrims!

There is new Albergue in Mompia, run by a lovely young couple. The place is brilliant and the bathroom is as good as you get in a four star hotel. They also provide an evening meal and breakfast.
