Hiking routes in Bilbao and natural tourist attractions
Mount Artxanda: discover the hill with the best panoramic views of Bilbao
Going up Mount Artxanda is a great way to see Bilbao from a different perspective and, often, observing places from the highest point helps us to take it all in that little bit better.
The Santimamiñe Cave: A Palaeolithic treasure
The cave, accidentally discovered by a group of children in 1916, contains the largest example of rock paintings in the province of Biscay.
Urdaibai Biosphere Reserve: the Basque Country’s natural gem
The area surrounding the estuary of the Oka river is a marshland paradise filled with migratory birds, “enchanted” forests, wild beaches, sheer cliffs and fishing villages.
The Forest of Oma, an explosion of colour in the heart of nature
The Forest de Oma is a place full of magic and beauty. Make sure you don’t miss the remarkable work of the Basque artist Agustín Ibarrola.
