Experience Details

I am a Basque native, in love with my country, culture and gastronomy. And after be working with travelers 7 years, in 2015 I started offering artisan, unique and authentic experiences in my own. Aiming to offer the possibility to enjoy feeling and living, the true essence of the Basque Country, out of the commercial and away from the tourist masses.


And this is the best experience I offer ever about hiking in the country side and probably the most pure that is offered in San Sebastian. If you don’t believe me, came on to hike to the Shepherd´s paradise and taste best mountain food & drinks into the wild. And after completing the experience, you are not satisfied. I will return you, the amount paid for it.

What You’ll Experience

Hike to the sheperd´s paradise and taste best mountain food & drinks in the paradise : As we approach driving (1 hour), we will stop for breakfast. And then, starting at 700 meters from the sea level and using an easy trail, we will arrive to a beautiful valley full of pastures located 950 meters high. There, we will enjoy a good mountain snack with cider in an authentic shepherd’s edge. From the edge, you will have the option to up to one of the highest peaks of the Basque Country, 1528 meters high, or relax enjoying the valley. Before completing a circular route through an area with spectacular beauty, finishing with a mini-yoga session to stretch our muscles. We will finish the day, having a drink in a 500 years old farmhouse. And if you want, on the way back we can make a stop to take a nice bath in the mountain waters. Difficulty : Moderate Distance : 12 km Increased elevation : 600 m
