THE BASQUE COUNTRY

THE BASQUE COAST

Bird-watching can be extremely interesting in the Basque Country. The Txingudi wetland in Irún, the Cabo Híguer in Hondarribia or the inaccessible Isla de Aketxe in Bermeo are excellent natural observatories. The Urdaibai Bird Centre in Gautegiz-Arteaga is a bird banding and study centre. In fact, the Basque Country has a tourist product giving full information on bird watching: Basque Country birding

The flysch route

From Mutriku and Deba to Zumaia... these stunning cliffs are even more impressive when observed from the sea. This marvellous insight into the evolution of the planet is composed of flysch , a geological formation that shows the secret history of the Earth like an open book. A fascinating boat trip allows you to approach this awesome coast, declared a World Natural Heritage Geopark Reserve by Unesco.

A GREAT IDEA
