Beautiful climb through rural area. Certainly not much other traffic during the week. On one side a valley and mountains and when you're at the top beautiful views over the Cantabrian sea. If you follow the road and descend you are at the beach in San Sebastian/Donostia.... read more

Beautiful climb through rural area. Certainly not much other traffic during the week. On one side a valley and mountains and when you're at the top beautiful views over the Cantabrian sea. If you follow the road and descend you are at the beach in San Sebastian/Donostia.

Prachtige beklimming door landelijk gebied. Zeker door de week niet veel ander verkeer. Aan de ene kant een vallei en bergen en als je boven bent prachtig uitzicht over de Cantabrische zee. Als je de weg volgt en afdaalt ben je aan het strand in San Sebastian/Donostia.
