The ride
Roll out of Elizondo and the road soon turns to gravel, with 87% of this 60.7 km loop unpaved. You pass the watermill at Infernuko errota before the Bertizko Jaurerria nature reserve, then follow the Bidasoa and Baztan rivers. The Belate nature reserve comes next, and on the way back you roll past the Zubiria and Bikuña jauregia manors. A climb-heavy day that ends right where it began.
