cheese trail
Idiazabal
Start in Idiazabal: find the museum dedicated to their cheese, the shepherd’s monument, some latxa sheep next to Gernika tree, cheese factories… From Idiazabal, you can go to Segura and Ordizia by walking 45 minutes. First, get to Segura and visit the guys in Ondarre Cheese Farm. Then, 4 km away from Segura, go to Zerain and visit their 3 dairies, 2 cider bars and more museums.
A second plan is going to Ordizia, the key place if you’re into Idiazabal cheese. If you’re lucky enough to visit on a Wednesday, go to their market! The rest of the week you can walk the medieval town and D’elikatuz, Goierri’s Nutrition and Gastronomy Interpretation Centre.
The land of Idiazabal also has other queserías and pastoral txabolas inside both natural parks that you can visit (only during summer season). If you are traveling in a group, you should not miss the chance of organizing a wine + cheese tasting!
Don’t forget to check Goierri’s agenda to keep an eye on their local festivities and gastronomic fairs during the fall.
