Erratzu – Arizkun Route

The Erratzu – Arizkun Route follows ancient traditional paths that for centuries have connected the villages of the Baztan Valley, used by locals, shepherds and traders in their daily lives.

The route connects the towns of Erratzu and Arizkun, crossing a beautiful rural landscape where green meadows, scattered farmhouses, streams and Atlantic forests accompany the walker at all times.
