Embark on a hike from San Sebastian that encapsulates the essence of the Camino de Santiago de Compostela, featuring cliffs, Atlantic woodland, and viewpoints that seem to hover above the sea. You'll set off from the heart of San Sebastian towards Mount Ulía, following historic trails marked with scallop shells.
Breathe in the salty aroma of the Cantabrian Sea and take a moment to appreciate natural balconies offering views of the bay and the Faro de la Plata. This is an ideal stretch for hiking enthusiasts who wish to savour the Jacobean route at a leisurely pace. Your journey concludes in the charming San Pedro (Pasaia), a fishing harbour brimming with stone houses, boats, and taverns where the rhythm of maritime life can be felt at every turn. Here, you'll grasp why so many walkers select this stage as their initial taste of the pilgrim spirit on the road to Santiago de Compostela. At the end of your trek, you can refuel with a pintxo and a drink.
Rest assured, a vehicle will be ready to whisk you back to San Sebastian once your walk concludes.
