An ascent of Txurrumurru (seriously)











We are in Basque country which means crazy spelling. Driving down from Biarritz to San Sebastian in northern Spain we saw this peak in the foothills of the Pyrenees and decided to pop up it for some exercise. It is situated in the Aiako Harria Natural Park just inside the Spanish boder and is a fairly gentle walk up with some fun scrambling and bouldering at the top. The whole place was covered with sheep and wild ponies which made Wendy very happy. Afterwards we came on down to San Sebastian for the evening.
