Route 10. Améscoa Cycling Route

The circular cycling route starts from the Zudaire car park, in Améscoa Baja, although it can also be started from other villages. We head south to reach Barindano. We then continue westwards, below the northern slope of the Sierra de Lokiz, as far as San Martín. Next, we travel between cultivated fields towards Ecala and Eulate, entering Améscoa Alta. There, we move onto the southern slope of Urbasa and the Monte de Limitaciones de Las Améscoas to head towards Aranarache. We go to the upper part of the village to climb the concrete track, reaching a rocky narrowing at the top. After passing through the metal gate, we head left along the track between beech woods, entering the Monte de Limitaciones.

Later, at the junction with the paved track, there is a fork with the possibility of turning left to complete a 7 km circular route through beech woods and approach the monumental tree known as the Haya de Limitaciones.

Taking the right-hand branch at the fork, however, we continue through wooded areas and open grasslands to the Ubaba Viewpoint. We skirt this rocky amphitheatre, home to the source of the Urederra, and continue along the track until we reach the crossroads that allows us to descend to Artaza. From here, we head towards Gollano and Baquedano, and, following the course of the River Urederra, return to Zudaire.
