Take a walk away from the old town to the other side of the bay along the beautiful promenade to the Funicular station at the bottom of Monte Urgull. The accent itself is worth the trip but when you reach the top you will be rewarded by the best views of the bay. There is a bar with a panoramic terrace to enjoy the view from. The top of the mountain is also home to a small theme park with a variety of tame rides to enjoy with your family. There is a narrow circular water canal ride that skirts the perimeter of the mountain top, hugging the edge of the cliffs carrying small boats for 4. So if you don't suffer from vertigo then it's a great way of taking in the views. The top of the tower has a 360 degree view of the whole area.

Must do in San Sebastian. There are multiple ways to the top but once you are there you have great views. Unfortunately at the moment, access to the very top (Christ statue) is not possible.

Urgull is a hill by the ocean sitting at the heart of the Basque city of San Sebastián. The hill has123 m at its highest point. I visited Urgull Hill (Urgull: Gascon etymology for 'pride') in winter. The views of the city from the mountain are wonderful. The climb is easy.
The hill is topped by a stronghold, the Mota Castle. I strongly recommend visiting this place.

It's a somewhat long walk up the mount, but it's a great view of the city and it has both historic and natural interest. The castle of La Mota can be visited for free and I repeat, it's quite the view. There's also a free historic museum inside (quite detailed!)
