The Bidasoa Greenway

Throughout the route, you will encounter magnificent landscapes of green meadows dotted with country houses, picturesque tunnels, typical villages, and even the odd forgotten bunker. Whether you travel on foot or by bicycle it is always an easy and pleasant route with a practically flat profile.

The Bidasoa railway line started in 1898 to link Irun to the mines at Endarlatsa in Navarra. The now-disused route has been converted into a greenway covering 35 kilometres from Oieregi to Endarlatsa along the Bidasoa river valley.

Known as the Txikito (little) train due to the gauge (0.92 m), it made its last journey to the area where the British set up their mine in the 1850s. It is now a long trail for walkers/cyclists that runs along theriver Bidasoa.
