The Gorges Interpretation Centre includes an interpretation space dedicated to the gorges, lands, people and trades of the Lumbier basin, an exhibition on the social, natural, historical and cultural aspects of the zone, focussing on the Lumbier and Arbaiun gorges, an audiovisual room, and a sensory tunnel labyrinth.

The Gorge Interpretation Centre is the central facility for all the information on and interpretation of these characteristic formations in the pre-Pyrenean area of Navarre, and the leading tourist information point in the Aoiz-Lumbier district.

It holds talks, exhibitions and interpretive outings in the area, providing the perfect opportunity to discover not only the most popular tourist spots but also others which are less known but just as surprising, all in the company of local guides. Check out what’s on and book a place:
