\u201cNON GOGOA, HAN ZANGOA\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Where your thoughts go, your steps go (an old Basque saying). Gorliz, throughout its municipal area, contains multiple opportunities to walk through special places, some steeped in history, and charming landscapes that amaze the walker. Due to the advantage of being a municipality facing the sea, on some routes we can enjoy not only walking among a special native vegetation, but also vertical cliffs that descend almost vertically to small coves bathed by the lively Cantabrian Sea.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n

The steep and winding coastline leading from the sandy beaches of Gorliz and Astondo adds a special attraction to coastal walks with spectacular scenery. If we add the charms of the neighbouring towns, you will find yourself in this privileged area that forms part of what is known as the Uribe Kosta region of Bizkaia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Route 1<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Ascent of Ermua by the old route<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is the quickest and most direct route up Ermua, starting from the town centre. It is the one we have always used, ever since we were kids and climbed it long before they built the lighthouse with its road. In the past, almost the entire coastal area of Gorliz was under military occupation, which is why us young people of the time climbed up \u201cour usual path\u201d. Although one part of the climb is a little awkward, it is not difficult at all, and if you walk a little briskly, without dawdling, you can reach the summit in less than an hour.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
