What a weekend, we rode mountain bike along the coastal route of St James Way off the beaten track from the usual hikers. We stand up paddled down the super glassy calm river Oria stopping for swims along the way. We had a great gang who stood up for the first time in the surf. We enjoyed the sunshine and then got drench in the best lightening storm of the Summer so far. If these adventures are up your street please get in touch for all the details [email protected]
Today we headed in land for the “The train track trail”. It was a hot one so the ride through the tunnels gave a much needed shady break from the heat. The river and woods look their very best right now at the height of Spring, full of fish and birds. We passed through farms on our way to Leitza spotting a brand new foal before wandering the old streets of this charming, unchanged local village. We bumped into local world champ Iñaki Perurena who can lift 320 kilos. Our guests had decided to push it and do 50km instead of 25km so we fuelled up on traditional ham bocatas before heading back on the hang on to the seat of your pants down hill route.
We had a great time hiking the “On the Edge” tour today on a hot Summer’s morning. This classic part of the Camino de Santiago otherwise known as St James Way looked stunning as we made our way up from the city, through the woods and out onto the Coastal track with insane views of the sea. It was a clear day which meant we could see right up the coast to France with views of Biarritz and even up to Hossegor. We took it easy today as the clients had a great interest in the local wildlife so there was plenty of photo and pintxo breaks.
We wound down past the lighthouse and made our way to San Pedro where we decided to stop in one of the bars along the way and fill our bellys before we headed back to San Sebastian. Don’t worry if you would like to take this tour up a gear, it is an amazing route for trail running and we can tailor make this tour suited just for you and your group.
