WALK THROUGH THE WESTERN COAST OF CANTABRIA
Within the route of this walking route that we propose will be of low difficulty and highly advisable to preserve the physical condition of our body., They will be made with pick-up at the corresponding hotels or departure from our Pumalverde base. (Udías), Cantabria, depending on what the client prefers.
Hidden on the western coast of Cantabria and within the municipality of Santillana del Mar, Santa Justa Beach brings together that wild beauty and authenticity so sought after in the north of Spain. A small natural gem that, beyond its golden sand, guards a small hermitage attached to the rock and the ruins of an old watchtower with breathtaking views.
The fundamental idea is to take the following route:
In the morning to Santa Justa Beach, which is one of these corners that, although the images give a good account of the spectacular nature of the place, earn much more naturally. It is a small beach, just 100 meters wide, but completely wedged between cliffs and with an added extra of spectacularity due to its small attached temple and the remains of the Medieval tower of San Telmo.
The building ofthe hermitage dating from the 16th century it's simple. Completely lacks ornaments. No need more. Its very location gives it that aura of mystery and drama that is so surprising when you see it for the first time..
Access is by road to the parking lot at the foot of Santa Justa beach and then bya simple path that runs along the cliffs and?, after a fork, ends next to the stone building. It is impressive to observe from here the location of the temple and its true exposure to the fury of the Cantabrian Sea.
Already on the return from the visit to the hermitage of Santa justa, We can approach it along a small path or dirt road that takes us to the ruins of San Telmo standing high on the coast..
Next, We will transfer to a nearby restaurant area in the Ruiloba area where we can visit a restaurant with a visit to its wineries and vineyards included., with subsequent typical Cantabrian food in the same place, where they will offer us to choose the gastronomy and typical wines of this area of Cantabria.
Subsequently, and after lunch in the agreed area, the second excursion will be carried out in the afternoon, visiting comillas and one of the most visited points of it is “El Capricho de Gaudí” where we will enter with a guided tour of the entire area..
Posteriorly, We will visit Comillas beach where we will stop for a small snack and later we will return to the starting point to end the excursion..
