I arrived at lunchtime and immediately went out to check on the local geology. I have to say that I found it mind-boggling.

That’s the local beach on the left. And behold! The flysch. This is the stuff that you walk over on the descent to Zubiri.

That’s the Ermita San Telmo perched on near-vertical sheets of limestone.

And again. I walked along the cliffs to the point at far right.

Looking back towards San Telmo. The stripes are the truncated limestone layers. The diagonal line is the edge of the cliff. I had crossed over the safety line in the interests of science!

This is looking towards the point.
