San Sebastian Bike Tour: Active Highlights Visit
The main city sights and off the beaten path spots on a bike!
Did you know San Sebastian is the only European city with a tunnel inside used exclusively by bikes?
Did you know San Sebastian has 3 beaches and 3 mountains inside of the city?
Did you know 2 of the greatest sculptors of the 2nd half of XX century have their works in 2 beautiful viewpoints in the city?
If you want to activate your body while visiting one of the most beautiful landscapes that a city could have chosen, this could be your tour. Since the first minute we will be immersed on the coast line and we will drive all along its 4 miles (6 km) stopping by iconic points.
After passing by all 3 San Sebastian's beaches, on the way back of our tour we will choose another way, an old train way tunnel, along a mile we will do underground cycling . To finish this 4 miles (6 km) way back we will cycle and stop beside the greatest buildings and bridges of the city.
