Day Two Cue Sheet
Andoain – Lekunberri (42 km)
Don’t let the idea of a 600m climb put you off. The incline on the Vía Verde del Plazaola is so gentle that you won’tnotice the incline, and the views along the way are incredible. Best of all, almost all of today’s route takes place onroutes that have very little, if any, traffic. Remember to bring a flashlight or headlight in case
