On this cape are the ruins of the Askorriaga fortress, built in the 18th century. Although few vestiges remain of this building, the views of the sea are still privileged.

Wünderschöner vantage point, the view is worth in any case, but on the way there and in some places caution because of loose gravel on the beaten track offered (risk of slipping)!
