The Sanctuary of the Virgin of Codés is located at the foot of the mountain range. It is a splendid 16th-century building built on the remains of a hermitage. The Baroque tower dates from the 18th century. The holy water fountain is next to the arcades, and there is also a guesthouse and gardens for relaxing and passing the time. The route climbs to the left of the building to a parking lot where signs and signs display the hiking trails. The path continues along the GR-1 long-distance trail, the Historical Trail, to Santa Cruz de Campezo, on the Álava side of the mountain range. The path is quite steep through a tunnel of oak trees, some of which are centuries old and stand out in a disturbing way against the dense forest.

A curious and well-known wine fountain. I was able to confirm that it is true that wine is produced, but its quality is not the best.

We stopped to sleep in this hostel at the entrance of the town and the amenities it offers and being able to find the keys in a locker give a lot of room to be able to arrive at any time. The modern bathrooms are shared
