If you are looking for the easiest route, we recommend that you go directly to the next section. From the upper parking lot of the Sanctuary of Urkiola (located at the back of the Sanctuary), we must enter the fields on the slope of Mount Urkiolamendi. We start to climb. After walking about 500 meters, we enter a kind of firebreak 270 meters long.    <\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-114446\" src=\"https:\/\/turismovasco.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/ruta-a-urkiolamendi-cortafuegos.jpg\" alt=\"route to urkiolamendi, firebreak\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" srcset=\"https:\/\/turismovasco.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/ruta-a-urkiolamendi-cortafuegos.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/turismovasco.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/ruta-a-urkiolamendi-cortafuegos-980x735.jpg 980w, https:\/\/turismovasco.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/ruta-a-urkiolamendi-cortafuegos-480x360.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) and (max-width: 980px) 980px, (min-width: 981px) 1024px, 100vw\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Once we leave the forest, we are 800 meters from reaching the summit. From this point, the views are impressive. To our left we are accompanied by the Anboto Alluitz range, an impressive mass of stone that impresses everyone who makes this route.  <\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-114462\" src=\"https:\/\/turismovasco.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/vistas-desde-la-cima-de-Urkiolamendi-Urkiola.jpg\" alt=\"views from the summit of Urkiolamendi, Urkiola\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" srcset=\"https:\/\/turismovasco.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/vistas-desde-la-cima-de-Urkiolamendi-Urkiola.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/turismovasco.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/vistas-desde-la-cima-de-Urkiolamendi-Urkiola-980x735.jpg 980w, https:\/\/turismovasco.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/vistas-desde-la-cima-de-Urkiolamendi-Urkiola-480x360.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) and (max-width: 980px) 980px, (min-width: 981px) 1024px, 100vw\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Upon reaching the summit of Urkiolamendi (1,011 meters), we find a small panel that shows us all the peaks around us. If the day is clear you can see much of the Durangaldea region. We recommend that you spend more than 5 minutes to enjoy the environment. It is spectacular. When descending, we can return by the same path or go down to the fields of Asuntze to enjoy the source of Pol Pol. If you choose the second option, you have to follow the forest track that starts from Pol Pol to get directly to the Sanctuary of Urkiola.     <\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-114396\" src=\"https:\/\/turismovasco.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/cima-de-urkiolamendi-urkiolagirre.jpg\" alt=\"summit of urkiolamendi, urkiolagirre\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" srcset=\"https:\/\/turismovasco.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/cima-de-urkiolamendi-urkiolagirre.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/turismovasco.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/cima-de-urkiolamendi-urkiolagirre-980x735.jpg 980w, https:\/\/turismovasco.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/cima-de-urkiolamendi-urkiolagirre-480x360.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) and (max-width: 980px) 980px, (min-width: 981px) 1024px, 100vw\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Route_to_Pol_Pol_and_Urkiolamendi\"><\/span><strong>Route to Pol Pol and Urkiolamendi.<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<div class=\"clear\"><\/div><div style=\"margin-top:20px; margin-bottom:20px;\" class=\"divider divider-solid\"><\/div>\n<p>This route is much simpler and more complete than the previous option.

It is also one of the most emblematic mythological areas of Euskadi. And we must remember that in the Anboto mountain we find the home of Mari, her cave.
