Askizu is a tiny hilltop hamlet between Getaria and Zumaia with no services but fine views of the coast. The camino passes through on country lanes, and at the far end the trail forks — the path to the right offers sweeping views as it descends toward the Playa de Santiago and Zumaia beyond.
At the far end of Askizu the camino forks at a house, turn right. The trail here affords excellent views of the sea. It will begin to descend, passing the Playa de Santiago far below. At sea level it rejoins the N-634 along a pedestrian walkway into Zumaia. The walkway bears right at the river to cross along a foot bridge. Once over the bridge it turns right through a small park to arrive at another footbridge over a different river and into the old town of Zumaia.
