Zaldibia-Arkaka SL Gi-2008

Zaldibia is located in the valley sculpted by the Urtsua and Amundarain rivers, in the northern skirt of the Aralar Mountains. Although daily activity suffered a huge metamorphosis with the advent of industrialization, the town of Zaldibia has always been closely linked to land, mountains and natural resources. For years, and after hard work, they have been the livelihood of the local population.
Zaldibia is one of the main entrances of Aralar, as from here you access the mountains of Aralar through the road of Enirio.
The tour departs from the center of Zaldibia, from the square between the town hall and the church of the 12th century, Santa Fe. We will take the meaning of the Amundarain River but in the opposite direction, and we will go through a beautiful rural environment surrounded by gardens and farmhouses, until we reach Arkaka.
The tour is very comfortable. It is a 7.5 km paved road so it is a route that can be made with the children’s chariot and the whole family.

Zegama – Water canal

The route runs through a canal that collects the waters of the streams coming down from the Aizkorri mountain range, as the canal crosses the skirt of the Aizkorri mountain range. This water channel was built in 1925 for the production of electric power, mostly for the trash of Zegama but which served many dwellings that still had no light.
Today it is part of a network of routes around biodiversity with different characteristics.
The route of the canal departs from Zegama’s old train station, which begins to climb through different forests and an environment of herdsmen’s slums. Once the beginning of the canal where the first water begins to be collected, the path follows the path of the canal, so it has no slope.
You can walk in the company of the streams coming in, feeling the freshness of the place and the sound of the water when running. For the collection of water, the canal has a dam, called Iturbieta from where the water is directed by an underground tube towards Zegama, to the Electra Aizkorri power station. Electricity is still produced in this plant today.

In the last kilometre of the route the trail running next to the swamp comes to an end and we will have to continue along the road that connects Salbatoreh with Mandubia, a road that passes through the neighborhoods of Astigarreta and Garin, belonging to the town of Beasain.
