ムルエタのおすすめツーリングルート

Insane new paved road with beautiful turns and views on the coast. Renown for local bikers but not too busy with cars for us around lunchtime

When the Condor attacked, the residents of Guernica tried to protect the tree with their bodies because it is sacred to the Basques. Even today, elected politicians have to swear their loyalty to the Basque Country at an oak tree that stands a few meters away.

Lonely coastal road for cycling with a beautiful beach and bars for a break.

Completely destroyed by the German Condor Legion in the Spanish Civil War. https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Luftkampf_auf_Guernica A well-worth seeing exhibition in the central square shows the horrors of the civil war. The Spanish spelling with "ue" probably goes back to Picasso.

This hermitage from the mid-19th century is a reconstruction of an older one that already existed in the place. On its lintel door you can see the wooden inscription: "Maddalen 1846", the year it was built. It has a small roof with a table and benches where you can take shelter if the rain surprises you.

Wall reproduction of Picasso's painting "Guernica" exhibited at the Reina Sofía Museum in Paris.

Picturesque village not to be missed!

Basilica of Our Lady of the Assumption of Lekeitio (Gothic style).
