The name Iturburua, which in Basque means “head of the springs,” refers to the abundance of springs and streams that originate in this area.
The route runs among oaks, beeches and chestnut trees, in a humid forest where moss, ferns and the sound of water create a serene and immersive atmosphere.
It is an ideal route to walk at a relaxed pace, enjoy the scenery and connect with nature. Its gentle elevation and short distance make it a perfect option for families, older people or walks with children, as well as for those looking for a simple and authentic experience of the Baztan Valley.
Throughout the year, Iturburua offers an ever-changing landscape: vibrant green in spring, freshness in summer and spectacular colors in autumn.
