Tour description
Exploring Pagasarri: A Hidden Gem in Bilbao
Hiking to the Top
The hike to the top of Pagasarri is a moderate 2-hour climb, winding through lush forests and rocky terrain. The trail is well-marked and suitable for hikers of all levels. As you ascend, the trees give way to open grasslands, and the views of the surrounding countryside unfold. Don't forget your camera, as the scenery is simply stunning.
Photo Opportunities
The summit of Pagasarri is a photographer's dream, with panoramic views of the Bilbao estuary, the city, and the surrounding mountains. Take a moment to soak in the atmosphere and snap some unforgettable shots. Be sure to capture the iconic Pagasarri peak, with its distinctive cross and stunning backdrop.
A Great Time
Pagasarri is more than just a hike – it's an experience. As you explore the mountain, take time to appreciate the unique geology, flora, and fauna of the region. Keep an eye out for the local wildlife, including birds of prey and wild horses.
If you're visiting in the summer, consider timing your trip to coincide with one of the many festivals and events that take place on the mountain. From traditional Basque music and dance performances to outdoor theater productions, there's always something happening on Pagasarri.
