Trail walking

Trail walking in Navarre is something special.

A countryside of contrasts that changes with every step you take, with scenery that is so varied that you get the impression that you've travelled thousands of kilometres.

The well-maintained trails will lead you to delightful villages, allowing you to completely switch off and to get back to basics.

Because these trails have this special something that is difficult to explain. A combination of nature and peace, which is really good for your health.

Group hiking in the forest

You simply need to decide which trail to take:

nice rail trails, trails alongside rivers that take you to the river source, others that go round reservoirs, paths that take you into the depths of the woodland or those that lead you to some stunning viewpoints...

and if you like the philosophy of Nordic walking, then we can offer you a number of centres located all oooooooover Navarre.

It's a difficult choice, isn't it?

More nature activities

To complete your programme of activities during your stay, here are a few ideas that you are bound to love:

Cultural heritage: a stroll back through history

Discover the city walls and medieval neighbourhoods of Pamplona, the cathedral in Tudela and its melting pot of cultures, the monuments throughout Estella-Lizarra, the beautiful medieval villages of Ujué, Puente la Reina or Gallipienzo, monasteries, our castles and fortresses, the Collegiate Church of Orreaga/Roncesvalles and many other Romanesque and Gothic monuments handed down to us by the Way of St James.

All this —and more— is there to be discovered in the Kingdom of Navarre, off your own back or through one of its fascinating guided tours.

And you will see that each place that you visit, each part of the Kingdom of Navarre that you pass through, is brimming with history, bearing the footprint of the most important western civilisations over thousands of years.

Navarre proudly and carefully presents this rich cultural heritage for what it is—a real treasure.

Listen to your experience

Navarre is a destination where you can enjoy the good things in life. Staying in a hotel where silence reigns, tasting the most exquisite delicacies and taking care of yourself like never before is really just the beginning.

Because this can be followed by a brilliant show on some of the main Navarrese cultural stages, such as the Gayarre Theatre, Navarra Arena or the Baluarte Auditorium.

All this without forgetting the calendar of traditional festivals that Navarre celebrates over the year.

You’ll see that Navarre has so much to offer and, if you were doubting it, here’s another taster:
