Aizkorri-Aratz Natural Park, Natural park in Basque Country, Spain.

The park extends across 159 square kilometers between Gipuzkoa and Álava provinces, featuring mountain ranges with peaks reaching heights over 1500 meters.

The San Adrián tunnel, connecting Alava and Gipuzkoa provinces, contains Bronze Age artifacts and a stone-paved road used by Santiago pilgrims.

The park territory maintains traditional pastoral activities with shepherd huts scattered throughout the Campas de Urbía valley.

Multiple hiking trails start from the Sanctuary of Arantzazu or Zalduendo village, leading to different sections of the park and mountain summits.

The limestone composition of the eastern section creates extensive karstic formations, including the La Lece sinkhole and numerous caves containing prehistoric remains.
