Glorious views

Today was my fourth day of walking from Deba to Markina-Xemein.

Weather was lovely but brutal as the heat never let up today. Hardest day’s walking so far as to arrive at Markina-Xemein we had to ‘climb’ Mount Arno.

Again thankfully the lovely American couple helped me get through this walk along with some lovely Irish folk I met on the trail. Today was hard going!

Distance walked around 24km. Elevation around 620m.

Heading to Mutriku... the only place to stop for coffee today
Going to be a lot of steep climbs today!
Glorious weather and very hot for walking out in the open
View of Mutriku
Starting to get high up in the mountains
Lots of steep inclines
My fellow walkers taking a water break at the sign for Euskadi
And still we go up!
Glorious views of the countryside
Walking is hard going and the views are amazing
Well up in the mountains now!
Unfortunately steep uphills mean steep downhills!
Nearly there!
