The spa is a standout for downtime after time outdoors, and the nearby nature reserve and hot springs make it easier to mix active days with recovery.

For getting around, the area is geared toward the outdoors, with hiking and biking trails nearby and mountain biking options close at hand, plus bicycle rentals nearby for exploring at your own pace. It’s also a useful stop for day trips to the Caves of Zugarramurdi (about 22 km) and for spending time in the Baztan Valley region (around 18 km). Best for solo explorers, couples, and pet owners who want a straightforward, nature-focused stay and are comfortable planning around a limited front-desk schedule.
