About this experience

Join a hike from San Sebastian along the Camino de Santiago, featuring cliffs, Atlantic forest, and sea views. This excursion begins in Donostia / San Sebastian, following the coastal path across Mount Ulia and using scallop-marked trails. Participants can enjoy ocean air and scenic viewpoints of the bay and Faro de la Plata. The hike is suited for those who enjoy hiking and want a leisurely experience of the Camino. The route concludes in the fishing village of San Pedro (Pasaia), known for its stone houses and taverns. Here, travelers can sample a pintxo and drink before being transported back to San Sebastian, though return transport is not included for the bilingual group. A bilingual guide leads the hike, which emphasizes a relaxed pace and encompasses elements of nature, history, and tradition.
