The route in the Basque Country is extraordinary, both in terms of the paths, the landscapes, and the towns. The signage is also excellent. The route is mountainous for almost the entire route, more so in the province of Guipúzcoa than in Vizcaya, and we must overcome up to 10 mountain ranges between 300 and 500 meters above sea level. The landscape is essentially made up of green and humid valleys, large forested areas, numerous streams, livestock farms, the rugged coastline, and compact villages.
