TOURIST ATTRACTIONS > The Kidney Bean Route

This route takes us to some of the Basque Country's most charming places: Gernika and Tolosa, capitals of fairs, culture and Basque pelota; the Zerain living Cultural Park, with its agricultural products and restored heritage; and Uribe, a Roman town that was once a popular resting place along the Santiago Pilgrim Trail.

This fascinating route around the Basque Country will also take us past important natural areas: Aizkorri, the Aralar Nature Reserve, the Urdaibai Biosphere Reserve and the biotope of the Uribe region.

The people, their wisdom, customs, confidence and traditional products, including the delicious kidney bean that is the focus of this route, constitute yet another hidden attraction.

The route begins in Zerain, and continues on to Tolosa, Busturia and Uribe. Kidney beans, an integral and much praised component of Basque cuisine, offer the perfect opportunity to get to know the customs, character and peculiarities of the Basque people. And of course, you must not forget to try a tasty dish of kidney beans at Zerain's Ostatu Restaurant or Mandio Bar.
