January 14, 2026,Fietsrondje San José en retour via Camping Los Escullos
A magnificent mountain bike route. The first section is a bit of a hike up a very steep slope with loose rocks. Once at the top, you'll enjoy stunning views along a narrow path with precipices. Then a nice long descent. The return trip from the beach to San is easy.
