Otsogorrigaña

Otsogorrigaña rises to 1923 meters at the border between Spain and France, featuring limestone formations, meadows, and dense forests of beech and pine trees.

The mountain area contains numerous boundary markers from point 237 to 246, which have guided travelers through foggy conditions across centuries of cross-border passages.

The name Otsogorrigaña derives from Basque language elements meaning either 'high of the red wolf' or 'high of the bald wolf area' in local terminology.

Multiple hiking trails lead to the summit from both Larrau pass and Mintxate valley, with a total distance of 20 kilometers and moderate technical requirements.

At the peak stands a metallic mailbox installed by C.M. Anaitasuna, offering views of surrounding peaks including Barazea and Lakartxela across the Navarrese landscape.
