Urtsua - Ursuia (Macaye)

PLRV1057-T3-2945
PLRV1057-T2-2989
rando-ursuia (2)
PLRV1057-T1-3019

Description

Contrary to what the start of the hike might suggest, which is initially sustained in the streets overlooking the church of Macaye, the rest of this counter-clockwise loop around Mount Ursuia is a pleasure to stroll around in contemplation. The easy paths on the heights of Macaye, Mendionde and Hasparren offer you constantly changing views, both of the neighbouring mountains and of the Atlantic coastline. On the way, you will come across sheep and pottoks, and take a shady break under the hundred-year-old oaks and chestnut trees. The heritage dimension is also satisfied, since you will discover farms and mountain edges, you will walk along a section of the ancient Napoleon road and the circuit skims the remains of a protohistoric camp. In other words, you will not see the time pass in the arms of the Ursuia.
