Mendatagaina Viewpoint and Flysch Cliffs

Highlight • Viewpoint

Located on the great wall of Aitzuri. The height provides spectacular views over the entire Basque coast and especially over Sakoneta beach. From here we can see and understand the erosion dynamics of the coast and the formation of the cliffs and the tidal flat.

View of Sakoneta Flysch Cliffs

Highlight • Viewpoint

Enjoy this 8.9-kilometer route near Deba, Gipuzkoa. The route is generally classified as difficult and can usually be completed in 3 hours 17 minutes. Although the route is ideal for trekking and hiking and is often busy, you can enjoy a bit of peace here at the right time of day.
This linear route is recommended for experienced hikers who want to enjoy beautiful views in the protected biotope of the Deba-Zumaia coastal section/arteko itsasertzeko Babestutako Biotopoa.

The hike starts in Elorriaga and goes along the "GR®121 Gipuzkoa Tour"/"GR®121 Gipuzkoako bira" to Deva, passing by Sakoneta, the Mendata waterfall, Arranomendi, the hermitage of Santa Katalina and the Santiago de Deba beach.

Sakoneta Cliffs

Highlight • Natural Monument

This cliff of Sakoneta is linked to that of Mendata. The path follows the very edge of the cliffs and overlooks secluded coves, soft rock walls, cascading streams and one of the largest tidal flats in Europe.

Zumaia Flysch Cliffs

Highlight • Natural Monument

This place is, in my opinion, one of the most aesthetic and spectacular places on the entire Basque coast. You can perfectly see the "puff pastry" that forms the flisch and, at low tide, you can walk almost completely. It is worth climbing to the point that overlooks the cove
