Bilbao to Zarautz, 100km. Started in early morning fog, soon to burn off. We followed the path of the Camino del Norte out of Bilbao and into Guernica, passing numerous pilgrims heading the other way through heavily wooded and often deeply muddy paths. From there the coast road and gravel tracks took us through lots of fishing towns, seemingly all having their own little festivals. Some severe climbs followed, too steep and tricky to even think about riding. But we made it to Zarautz by late afternoon, ready for a shower and a cold beverage.
