At the top of Urkiola we will find a restaurant, a hotel and a church as well as a car park. This is a famous cycling port and a meeting point for hikers who start their ascents from this point.

It is also perfect to make a stop in case of need.

Urkiola Sanctuary

Highlight • Religious Site

The Urkiola sanctuary is located in the heart of the homonymous natural park, in a beautiful setting surrounded by vegetation. Although the current building dates from the 19th century, it was built on the foundations of older temples, the first of which was a 13th-century hermitage.

Saibitxiki Hillside

Highlight • Summit

From the port of Urkiola (713 m) I take the track that goes to Saibi (946 m) following the indications until we reach the pass that separates it from the latter where we will jump the fence by a step and in the opposite direction to the one we had taken. on the ascent to the pass, we follow some trail traces until we reach the summit milestone of Saibitxiki.

Time to enjoy the views!
