Beasain – Aralar – Ataun – Olaberria – Beasain

Starting in Beasain, you will get through Aralar’s Natural Park, crossing Lazkaomendi and Enirio.
The ascent is long and hard, especially the final stage, close to Igaratza. Once there, it starts a pleasant downhill to Lareo reservoir. Get down the road to Ataun, where you will have to go up a short but steep slope, into the town of Olaberria. From here you will be getting closer to Beasain, seeing the beautiful caseríos of the area, and going down passing Indar’s factory and Igartza Monument Complex.

Ordizia – Lazkaomendi – Lareo – Ataun – Ordizia

This route starts in the center of Ordizia, ending in the same place.
From Ordizia, climb to Lazkaomendi from Lazkao’s path. Once in Lazkaomendi, from the old school spot, you will get fantastic views of Aralar and Aizkorri-Aratz mountain range. From the old school, turn right and you will find a path full of farmhouses. Then, this will turn into a track and you will see four fountains, being the fourth one Intxusti’s fountain. From Intxusti’s fountain, you will be getting in Aralar, where the higher altitudes take place. These kilometres are the highest of the whole hike, since once you get to Errekabeltz, you will get right away to Lareo reservoir. Here you will find many big stones, so lift up your bike! Lareo reservoir supplies water to Ataun, which is the next town the track takes you to, for 5 km. At the end of the track, go down the road to Ataun’s neighbourhood of Aia and keep going down untili the beginning of Lizarrusti’s port. The last kilometres, by road, will take you to two Ataun’s neighbourhoods, San Gregorio and San Martín, and the town of Lazkao.
To finish the route, you’re coming back to Ordizia!
