Rappel canyon, which is worth after rains, otherwise provides some variety on longer ride.

Access: machine translated ➜

From Bilbao, take the A-68 south towards Burgos/Logrono/Vitoria-Gasteiz; where the highway branches about 40km after Bilbao, we take the N-622 highway towards Gasteiz-Vitoria. We leave it at the first exit, heading west to Izarra and from there south on the A-3314 to Zuazo de Cuartango. Here we head west on the A-3116 via Arriano or Artxua to Luna. Passing the church, we head NNO until the dirt road crosses the streambed. Here we park the car.

Approach (30 min): machine translated ➜

Orographic. To the left of the stream, a path leads up to a bare plateau. The path descends to the left via a small rocky gully.

Tour (1 h 10): machine translated ➜

Here you can practice rappeling on overhangs; but be careful, they are brittle!

Return (5 min): machine translated ➜

At the bridging of the stream directly to the car.
