My service as a tour guide is free / donation-based, and the journey is at your own risk. That being said, I will do my best to facilitate an experience of a lifetime. The costs are for 7 days, but you can participate for one day or more, as you like and have the opportunity. In addition to my support and guidance, I offer yoga, relaxation and meditation, 30-60 min. daily. Join us on the Camino.

First part of Camino del Norte can be overwhelming with the many hills. We take time for good breaks and find our rhythm, and if the terrain still becomes too challenging, there is a bus, train or help from the local taxi driver not far away.

Dagsprogram

1st walking day / Irún - Pasai Donibane 16 km. Look forward to fantastic nature experiences! There are hills from the start, and after a cafe visit we take a Camino variant up a ridge with wild views. We catch a leisurely pace, and at Pasai Donibane we cross the fjord by boat.

2nd walking day / Pasai Donibane - San Sebastian 10 km. It goes up and down along the coast. The path is good, and soon we reach San Sebastian with time to explore the old town with direct access to beaches. Every day with optional yoga flow and meditation.

3rd walking day / San Sebastian - Zarautz 21 km. Another great day in the Basque Country with lush and beautiful landscapes with virgin forest and vineyards. We take time for breaks along the way - e.g. at a community and at the port of Orio 5 km. to the surf town of Zarautz.

4th walking day / Zarautz - Deba 21 km. We choose the coastal variant of the route to the small port town of Getaria, after which we go a little inland to visit the charming Zumaia, where we pass by Playa Itzurun, known for its geology and unique rock formations, which have been the scene of "Game of Thrones". Back on the Camino we continue through attractive landscapes with time for a drink halfway to Deba.

5th hiking day / Deba - Markina-Xemein 24 km. Possibility of driving the first 9 km. to Olatz. A beautiful day of hiking through lush forests and spectacular landscapes with wild views. A challenge for most, but with presence and patience, we arrive safely.

4th walking day / Zarautz - Deba 21 km. We choose the coastal variant of the route to the small port town of Getaria, after which we go a little inland to visit the charming Zumaia, where we pass by Playa Itzurun, known for its geology and unique rock formations, which have been the scene of "Game of Thrones". Back on the Camino we continue through attractive landscapes with time for a drink halfway to Deba.

Wednesday, October 8 / Arriving by flight in Biarritz or Bilbao with easy access to Hendaye/Irún at the French-Spanish border. 

6th walking day (Tuesday, October 14) / Markina - Munitibar 12 km. Last day with hiking experiences beyond the usual. First we walk along a small stream, and after 7 km. we arrive at a monastery and a more than 1,000-year-old church at Ziortza, where we can taste the local monk's brew. At lunchtime we reach the village of Munitibar and take the train to Bilbao with the possibility of visiting the Guggenheim Museum. Or, you can look forward to a visit in the colorful old quarter, Casco Viejo before leaving for the airport. Buen Camino.
