Departure from Hernani (Gipuzkoa)
Urdaburu, visible from miles away, is a landmark for the fishermen of Gipuzkoa who popularised its name (pronounced ‘urde-buru’, meaning ‘pig’s head’). With its characteristic steep cliff face, it has always served as a landmark for them. This route presents no difficulty apart from the final ascent, which requires a little care. For the descent, you need to retrace your steps slightly to avoid the steep and potentially vertiginous path on the eastern slope.

The Fort of San Marco is a military construction located at the top of Mount Bizarain at an altitude of 260 metres. It was built in 1880, near the village of Errenteria, to defend San Sebastián and the region from French attacks by land and sea. It is an excellent vantage point offering beautiful views of San Sebastián, Pasaia and Txingudi Bay.
The hike described here also offers the chance to discover some dolmens and take trails that are somewhat hidden in the forest. It may be useful to bring pruning shears to cut back any brambles or ferns that may have invaded the path.
