Orio walks

A circular route starting from the village of Orio at the mouth of the river of the same name. It will allow you to admire the coastline before returning to the town via narrow streets that are well worth exploring.

This short hike allows you to discover some of the sights of the town of Zarautz, including its famous beach and a few historical monuments. It is therefore a semi-urban hike. The first part takes place in the town. The second part takes you through Vista Alegre Park, where you climb to higher ground and quickly leave the town behind. The return journey is through the forest.

A beautiful circular route in the Natural Park starting from the Lukun area, with the option of having a picnic at the start or end of the hike. The path passes by the Agorregi forge and mills as it circles the Iturraran.

A magnificent hike along the coastline with its schist cliffs via the GR® 121 trail. However, it is quite physically demanding with 650 metres of elevation gain and a distance of 16 km. Return by train for €2.90. The hike is also known as the Flysch Route.

An atypical course, with a gradient reminiscent of Antoine de Saint-Exupéry's "snake that swallowed an elephant". The climb up the stairs may be a little rough, but the journey along the canal is very pleasant.

This easy circular is known as SL-GI-1002 Sagarraren Bidea (the Apple Route in Basque). Sagarno, literally "apple wine", is an iconic product of the Basque Country that can be enjoyed in cider houses (Sagardotegia).

Cette boucle est connue sous l'appellation PR®-GI-1002 Igoringo trikuharriak, soit les dolmens d'Igorin en basque. La présence de nombreuses palombières recommande d'éviter ce trajet à l'automne en période de chasse.

Leave your car in Hendaye and take this superb walk along the coastal path using the TOPO.Get off at Herrera station and head for the harbour of Pasaia-San Pedro, the starting point of the coastal path.Pass by Mont Ulia and its leisure park. In San-Sebastian, make a detour to Monte Urgull, with its fortress, monumental Christ (it's Rio) and view of Santa-Klara Island and the bay. Return to Amara station and take the TOPO to Hendaye.

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.

Superb hike for passing a lovely afternoon and enjoying an evening in old San Sebastien, eating tapas and pintxos.

A beautiful loop on the southern tip of the Jaizkibel above Pasaia. The first part of the route passes through the town of Pasaia via charming narrow streets. The route then passes along a steep path and returns to the village along a narrow road.

A beautiful hike with magnificent views from Erlo and Xoxote. The first part is steep, climbing up to Erlo on a rocky path. You can picnic at the Xoxote refuge, which serves drinks, sandwiches and coffee (open from April to mid-October except Mondays).

A round trip hike in the Jaizkibel massif, allowing you to reach the summit of Artola, where there is a sculpture dedicated to the friendship of peoples, the work of sculptor Remigio Mendiburu. It is an easy hike, accessible to all.

A beautiful walk to a "secret" valley in the Jaizkibel, with difficult access, but you're rewarded at every turn by the shapes of the rocks and their different colours, so much so that the Spaniards call it the valley of "los colores".But this is quite a demanding walk, and you need to be careful not to slip, as there are some tricky passages.

A very beautiful loop with a stunning view of Mount Jaïzkibel and the magnificent Spanish Basque coastline with its faults, valley of colours, Paramoundras and swimming pool. Difficult passages (equipped with ropes). For experienced hikers only.

We start by climbing to the summit of Munagirre (781 m), then follow a path through streams, small waterfalls and a beech forest, discovering the fairly recent ruins of the old Artikutza train, or very old ruins with cromlechs and superb views, either of the coast or of the peaks of the Three Crowns.

Lovely walk with views of San Sebastian, the Basque coast, the Trois Couronnes, La Rhune and a visit to a remarkable cromlech site.

Short walk around the Arditurri mines.Lovely undergrowth with numerous small streams and paths.When the weather's fine, you'll have a view of San Sebastien Bay and its rocky outcrop.

Discover the largest rocky headland in Jaizkibel, which juts out into the ocean, see incredible rock shapes and admire superb coves - these are just some of the activities on offer on this walk, which constantly offers superb views of the sea.

A short walk to discover the paramoudra site in half a day.

The walk is located in the northern part of Mount Jaizkibel, along the ocean to the Fig Tree lighthouse, returning through the forest, Fort and Guadalupe Chapel.

A lovely little hike very close to the town of Irun, but taking place entirely in the woods. In addition to breathing in the fresh air, you will visit a historical site where you can see one of the two towers that remain today, which were used to defend the town of Irun.

Very close to the town of Irun, this route takes you into the heart of nature, where you can breathe in the fresh air far from the traffic. You will climb a small hill, but you will also learn a little history as you discover an ancient tower that was once used to defend the town of Irun.

This is a variation of the "Paramoudras from Our Lady of Guadalupe" walk, which extends farther from the starting point. It adds some more kilometres, but awards with beautiful sandstone sculptures made by wind and water. It also adds two descents that not everybody would be comfortable with, but nothing too bad. We were happy that we missed the turn from the original route and felt that this added a lot of value to the walk.

The entire route follows the ridge of the Jaizkibel, with beautiful views on both sides.Not recommended during dove hunting season.

Jaizkibel starting from Guadalupé in Hondaribia. Circular route. It follows the Way of St James (northern route). It climbs gently along a forest path, then returns along the ridge with views of the ocean...

A visit to this very special place where paramoudras can be observed. Plan to be at your destination at low tide for best viewing.

Take advantage of a sunny day to picnic and enjoy this short family walk of about 8km. A bit of road with very little traffic, then a forest path, and then the descent to the ocean. You'll find coves, steep hills, sailing boats, cows, sheep and pottoks.Before or after your walk, don't forget to visit the chapel of Guadalupe and its view over the bay of Hendaye/Hondarribia and the mouth of the Bidassoa.

Starting from Guadalupe Chapel, enjoy a magnificent hike along the coast with its strange rocks carved out by the sea over millions of years! Then climb back up towards Jaïkibel to discover the coast from above.

Lovely loop overlooking the sea, near Hondarribia. The views are magnificent, both East and West.
