01
The route
A west-bound crossing of the Cantabrian coast. You leave Pamplona through rolling hills and beech woods, cross to San Sebastián and Bilbao on unsurfaced tracks and panoramic roads above the Bay of Biscay, and finish among Asturian valleys and inland Galicia. The tracks are easy: this route is built to enjoy the driving, not to survive it.
