Our favorites: the coastal trail, which you will love. This trail passes right in front of the campsite and is relatively easy to hike, so you can bring the whole family. You can explore it piece by piece between Biarritz and San Sebastián. With unobstructed views of the ocean and cliffs, the trail alternates between beaches, coves and paths. Make sure you enter Saint-Jean-de-Luz by way of the Sainte Barbe point that dominates the whole bay for a magical view.
You can climb the Rhune, the highest mountain in Basque Country that reaches 905 m and offers a 360° panorama of the whole French and Spanish Basque Country, something the seasoned hiker should not miss! You can start out from the foot at Ascain, Olhette or Sare, or you can take the authentic little tourist train if you prefer. When you hike the mountain, you can visit the village of Sare, ranked as one of the most beautiful villages in France.
The Jaizkibel is a nice walk on the Spanish side. You can follow the meandering coast overlooking the ocean. Not a single house in sight, nothing but the bushy forest, the flowery moor, meadows, rocks, waves, blue, green and wild gray! On the way back, stop in the pretty village of Hondarribia to eat some pintxos in the best tapas bars in the region.
In the gorges of Kakuetta, you can take a unique hike in a tropical atmosphere. You follow a 2 km canyon through lush vegetation, dizzying cliffs, trails and walkways to finally get to a majestic waterfall, a great reward for the hike.
