Nervión Falls
With a monumental free fall of over 220 meters, Nervión Falls holds the title of the highest waterfall in the entire Iberian Peninsula. Located on the border between the Basque Country and Castile and León, this geological phenomenon impresses with the grandeur of the rocky amphitheater of the Delika gorge. From the viewpoint suspended above the abyss, we can witness the imposing crag where the Nervión River plunges into the void—a spectacle that reaches its maximum splendor during the thaw or after heavy rains, when the force of the water creates a truly overwhelming visual experience.
San Juan de Gaztelugatxe
Dramatically nestled on the rugged coast of the Cantabrian Sea, San Juan de Gaztelugatxe is one of the most magical, legendary, and cinematic settings in Spain (even serving as a backdrop for the famous Game of Thrones series). This mystical 10th-century hermitage was built atop a rocky peninsula that defies the force of the waves, connected to the mainland by a narrow, winding stone bridge. To reach the top, one must climb 241 steps carved into the rock, and then it is possible to observe a seascape of indescribable beauty.
Biscay Suspension Bridge
Declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO, the majestic Biscay Bridge is one of the most impressive engineering works of the Industrial Revolution, linking the towns of Portugalete and Getxo over the mouth of the Nervión River. Known worldwide as the oldest continuously operating bridge in the world, this monumental cast-iron structure—designed by Alberto Palacio, a disciple of Gustave Eiffel—sublimely combines technical innovation with aesthetic elegance. Crossing the river on its famous suspended nacelle or walking along its walkway, more than 45 meters high, allows for an unforgettable journey through 19th-century architectural history and panoramic views of the bay.
Orbaneja del Castillo
The idyllic village of Orbaneja del Castillo seems to have been taken directly from the pages of a fairy tale, famous for the spectacular waterfall of crystal-clear water that originates in its urban center and cuts through the houses towards the Ebro River. The secret of this phenomenon lies in the Cueva del Agua (Water Cave), a fascinating natural cave located at the base of the rocky amphitheater that crowns the town. A visit to the interior of this cave reveals the complex underground karst system from which the impressive torrent of water springs, allowing us to witness up close the beginning of the spectacular waterfall that gives fame and life to this village, one of the most beautiful in Spain.
