Departure from Kortezubi (Biscay)
The Oma Forest is a landscape artwork by the Basque artist Agustin Ibarrola, consisting of hundreds of multicoloured abstract and figurative paintings set within a pine forest.
Entry is free (although it is recommended that you book a time slot and visit the reception before setting off, where you will be given an information leaflet).
From the car park and reception, the forest is reached via a 2.8 km uphill approach (a stony track that is relatively suitable for vehicles). The return journey follows the same route.

Departure from Areatza (Biscay)
Hike from the Pagomakurre car park to Gorbeia Peak. No technical difficulties, magnificent landscapes, horses, cows and sheep, guarded by very calm sheepdogs if you follow the basic rules.
It is best to hike when the weather is slightly overcast or to set off very early in the morning as there is no shade along the route. Please note that it is very windy at the summit.
