This new climbing school has the ease of being able to leave the car nearby in a car park. It has a beautiful and short approach path, comfortable foot of the track and good rock quality. You can still equip a lot in the area.

Leaving the car in the parking of the Interpretation Center of Lizarrusti, in 15 minutes you reach by foot the foot of the track, walking the trail. In this school you can climb in a good temperature during the hot summer days.

This school is located in the village of Ataun. It is located in an unbeatable location and shows of them the remains of an old tower found on its top. According to history, soldiers controlled the arrivals of Navarre soldiers from here. He also tells the legend that in this area the bodies of the Gentilak, a Basque mythological character, were buried.

The history of this school begins in the 1980s when a group of young people from the Goierri starts to equip pathways from below. In the 1990s, another crew with a more sporty perspective started equipping pathways from above. That’s when you equip the best roads. Today, we can find a low-grade school.

On this magnificent wall, you can find only one way. The way up the wall is an artificial way. Her opener, Mikel Saez de Urabain, opened her solo in 1998. The quality of the rock is generally good. We’ll find lots of holes and fine cracks. Birds take advantage of these holes to make their nests. The presence of vultures, crows and similar species is abundant in the area and it is therefore appropriate to respect the area from December to August. It would be interesting to reserve the climbing area in Alpine style because nearby there are sports climbing areas.

This small climbing school is located in the village of Zaldibia and is in a privileged setting. As a climbing school, it’s a good place to spend half a day. It’s south-facing. In order to arrive we will take from Zaldibia the road that leads to the merchant of Olakosail (Akapulko); from now on, we will reach the tanks and the road for vehicles ends at this point. Following the path that leads to the dam and following the water channel, we will arrive in 10 minutes to Haitzartea.

We can find 2 sectors which are very different in the type of climbing. Doing a little bit of history, we can find ancient climbing material in the area like nails, cordines and so on. The first impulse to equip it for sport was from Erramun, who opened 3 tracks in the area above. These pathways have required renewal in order to be scaled. Later, Iñigo Zeberio equipped 4 tracks on the wall below and one on the wall above. Iñigo proposes in seventh grade on a track in this area. There is the possibility of equipping more in that area.

This small climbing school in Ataun is more recent than Jentilbaratza or Intzartzu, which are next door. Since he was born, he was born with the concept of sports climbing. We can find 2 different sectors. The freiest and most difficult is the Korta sector in which the aesthetic of the wall is the most remarkable, with its perfect gray limestone. It is a pity that the equipment had to carve a lot of dams in order to equip them. The foot of the road is usually dirty having gained sheep in the area.

The second sector is that of the forest and the Erlaitz sector that is there. Here the difficulty of the roads is more variable: we can find pathways between 6b and 7b. The scenery and tranquility offered by the area for the practice of climbing is a wonder. You have to go through a hamlet to access the area where the dogs will get you barking.
