Our journey begins at the Sanctuary of San Miguel de Aralar. Here, you’ll uncover the legend of the dragon and the knight, marvel at a breathtaking 12th-century enamel altarpiece, and feel the ancient energy of a site that has drawn pilgrims for over a millennium.
Next, we descend into Lekunberri. Beyond its stone facades lies a labyrinth of history. We’ll wander past “Indiano” mansions and trace the town’s evolution from a medieval crossroads to a serene mountain retreat.
Deep in the woods, you’ll experience the Txalaparta. Guided by a local expert, you’ll learn the collaborative “twin” rhythm of this traditional Basque percussion instrument—once a vital signaling tool between mountain farms.
We conclude with a gourmet finale: a refined three-course meal at a celebrated local restaurant. This isn't just lunch; it’s an elevated take on the traditional “Menu del Día,” showcasing the very best Basque flavours in Gipuzkoa.
