I went in July 2023. This cave is completely closed. There are signs from the Basque government saying DO NOT ENTER (and explaining the consequences and the work they're doing) and plastic tape blocking the entrance. There are lots of constructions tools around too. Don't expect to get in unless you're willing to destroy the small stone wall and all the tape blocking the entrance.

The Ubaba viewpoint, also known as the Balcón de Pilatos, offers impressive views of the Urederra canyon, where the river of the same name is born, in the heart of the Urbasa-Andía natural park.

One of the places from which you can observe this wonder of nature.

Within the Urbasa-Andia Natural Park is this wonderful place with an interesting history related to its name. In addition to being one of the most spectacular caves in the area, its name dates back to the Carlist era in which it is said that General Zumalacarregui threw the shot soldiers of the other side, who were known as Cristinos or Isabelinos. Before going to the place, I recommend that you check on the official website if access is open, a while ago it was closed due to COVID (http://cuevacristinos.com/)

The Itaida menhir is a single very pointed vertical stone that looks at the sky. It was discovered by J.I. Vegas Aramburu in 1979 and investigated in 1981. It is divided into two pieces, the smallest being the one that corresponds to the point that is 0.70 meters. Its shape is a pyramid with a trapezoidal base and the total height must have been 3.10 meters. about. The excavation did not give archaeological results, which confirmed that it is not found in the place where it was raised for the first time.

The Ubaba viewpoint, popularly known as "Balcón de Pilatos", is a spectacular viewpoint on the southern edge of the Urbasa-Andia Natural Park, with a vertiginous drop from which you can see the Améscoas Valley and the path to the spring of the Urederra. From here you can hear the sound of the beautiful waters of the Urederra River. It is, without a doubt, territory for mountaineers, walkers and cyclists. Any time of the year is opportune to enjoy this corner, although it is not recommended in winter.
