This second stage is all downhill until we reach Donostia. If we loved the scenery yesterday, today it was truly spectacular. We didn't have time to hop on and off the bike to take in the wonderful views the landscape affords us.

July 17, 2024,Via Verde de Plazaola II - De Lekumberri a San Sebastian

July 7, 2022,Lekunberri - San Sebastián

Arrived in San Sebastian - after dozens of tunnels, some of which would have required a pit light. Two tunnels were closed, so we had to take detours. On the old railway line del Plazaola it went down around 15 km Holterdipolter. Scenic great.
