From outpacing the bulls in Pamplona and sampling pintxos in San Sebastián (European Capital of Culture 2016) to surfing the breaks at Biarritz, the Basque Country and Navarre have an abundance of delights to please even the pickiest of travellers.
Join us this month in exploring one of Europe's most exuberant corners.
In this, the most complete guidebook to the Spanish and French Basque Country and Navarre, Murray Stewart covers the principal cities - rejuvenated Bilbao, beautiful San Sebastián, verdant Vitoria and lively Pamplona - and also delves deeper into the region’s interior, capturing the quirkiness that makes it so special. With 35 maps, 16 walks, advice on where to cycle, horse-ride and surf, this book guides travellers through an area whose profile is firmly ‘on the up'.
