I have a blog with both photos and descriptions (in both Spanish & English) of our brief, yet intense, walk from San Sebastian to Bilbao (and then to Santander by train). It is a gorgeous walk & I wish that we had been able to do more, but the walking was much more physically demanding than that I did a year previously on the Camino Frances (Astorga to Santiago). The link is: http://www.dustyscamino.blogspot.com. Comments are always appreciated!

Get a spanish phone number with Airalo. eSim, so no physical SIM card. Easy to use app to add more funds if needed.

Ian:
It is a harder walk than the part of the Frances that I did, but (as always) I carried too much stuff (needed my ipad for blog, etc.) so perhaps if you travel lighter, it will be easier for you. Buen camino!
