    From this stretch of road you can enjoy the incredible landscape of the Urdaibai marsh. A long tongue of water and sand whose configuration changes with the tides and is in a good state of conservation. Along the road, the entire estuary is surrounded and the sand islands inside can be seen.

      In Urdaibai, there are currently some 600 hectares of marshes, which present a wide floodable bed. The action of the tides, endows this ecosystem with a dynamic component with great attraction for its observation. It is a landscape that changes every few hours. The Urdaibai marsh is an ecosystem in which the influence of nature and the centuries-old practices of man merge as in few places. In an environment that at first sight seems untouched, the expert eye discovers a network of old stone and mud dykes (munas), structures for gates no longer in use, semi-dry areas for pasture (polders) and canals for old mills, which were built with wisdom and respect for the environment have shaped a landscape with a multitude of nuances.
