Camino de Santiago hiking in San Sebastian small group
What your day looks like
Embark on a hike from San Sebastian that captures the essence of the Camino de Santiago de Compostela, with coastal cliffs, Atlantic forest, and viewpoints that seem to float above the sea. We begin in Donostia heading toward Mount Ulia, following historic trails marked with scallop shells, inhaling the salty breeze of the Cantabrian, and stopping at natural balconies overlooking the bay and the Faro de la Plata. It’s an ideal stretch for hiking enthusiasts who want to enjoy a section of the Jacobean route at a relaxed pace. The walk finishes in charming San Pedro (Pasaia), a traditional fishing harbour filled with stone houses, colourful boats, and lively taverns where maritime culture is present at every corner. Here you’ll see why so many walkers choose this route as their first introduction to the pilgrim spirit on the journey to Santiago de Compostela. At the end, you can enjoy a pintxo and a drink, and we take care of the return: a car will be waiting to drive us back to San Sebastian once the hike is complete. With a bilingual guide who shares both historical and natural insights, a friendly rhythm suitable for almost everyone, and transport back to the city included, this experience brings together landscape, culture, and tradition in a single day—leaving you eager to keep exploring the coast one kilometre at a time.
