Joar, Mountain summit between Álava and Navarre, Spain

The Joar mountain reaches an elevation of 1419 meters, featuring steep cliffs on its northern slope and dense forests along its hiking paths.

The Sanctuary of Codés near Joar mountain, constructed in the 16th century, experienced damage during the French occupation in the War of Independence.

Local stories tell of rock formations in the Codés mountain range that represent people who disappeared in the area throughout different periods.

The ascent to Joar summit spans 7.6 kilometers from the Sanctuary of Codés base point, requiring three hours of moderate hiking through marked trails.

Multiple needles visible across the mountain range create natural formations that serve as geographical markers for hikers navigating between provinces.
