Cols of Urdaibai

Distance
91.3 km
Elevation
1738 m
Difficulty
hard

A compact inland route built around a collection of short, punchy climbs scattered across the hills of Urdaibai.

Muniketa and Paresi are the main highlights, both demanding in different ways and linked by narrow, quiet roads that keep the ride constantly moving. The route descends the Balcón de Bizkaia toward Munitibar, where Sindikatu Jatetxea offers the only clear stopping point of the day, before the roads turn back into rolling terrain framed by green valleys and forested slopes.
