Otzaurte´s shepherds paths SL-Gi 3004
Between April and November, there are usually numerous herds and mares around the shacks of Garagartza, which is the central point of this route. When the sky is clear the view is impressive. On a road of these characteristics a tavern is essential to have rest. Surely in Otzaurte the shepherds have told countless stories, before and after long stays with their flocks. They go up with the cattle along the Ultzama road, so that the sheep and mares graze in the summer.
