Our route led us through the nice village #Azkoitia where we saw how they practice a local (basque) handball.
Near the coastal town Zumaia the #cycling path ended. The last part of this vias verdes is still unfinished. We took the chance and camped there in front of a overgrown tunnel.

btw. we highly recomend to cycle the #viasVerdes here in the #basque country. The #nature is so stunning and the road condition is perfect.

We traveled from Salamanca to Vitoria-Gasteiz by train.
In Vitoria-Gasteiz, we came across a #vegan restaurant by chance. The founder of the Root-Project / #rootgasteiz (on instagram) kindly inviteded us to bring our bicycles inside. We were impressed! After a very delicious meal and nice chats with Jim, we cycled into the night until we found a dry place to sleep. The whole next day we could cycle in the amazing green #nature on the #viasVerdes direction north.

bye bye #viasverdes

The 'via verde' ended very abrupt in Ciria.
Out of nowhere there was a sign 🚷 and the gravel changed to very rough.
We decided to keep going since osm showed it as a cyclepath, but a few hunderts meter there was this 20m high bridge not looking very cycleable.

the realy nice gravel road 'vias verdes' (bahntrassenradweg) leads us through wild and lost places. because of heavy wind and rain we found shelter underneath a bridge. so we could prepare food and eat.

route:
bercedo -> medina de pomar -> trespaderne

from Lerate we rode to Estella-Lizarra and there we took the beautiful Via del Ferrocarril (viasverdes.com) to Vitoria-Gasteiz.
Spain seems to be a #gravel paradise :)
