The castle is gigantic and beautiful to look at, unfortunately it has been surrounded by a construction fence for ages. Unfortunately, you can't see much. Whether the detour is worth it, everyone has to decide for themselves.

Definitely a highlight, but unfortunately, the castle was covered in scaffolding when I visited. The castle dates back to the Middle Ages but was later almost completely rebuilt.

A low point on the tour. It was a Sunday and all the restaurants were packed. When I politely expressed my wish to be able to charge the battery in Spanish, we were literally thrown out. Spaniards drive long distances to eat out on Sundays. It has never happened to us that the battery was not allowed to be charged. Of course we would have eaten and drank. The whole place was almost entirely made up of holiday apartments, with the blinds down and totally dead without the lunch guests. No hotel, no guesthouse, but with a train station. Cheers to the Euskotren regional train in the Basque Country, on time, super helpful staff. So take the train back to Gernica!!!

If you are seeing the original rocket-shaped mailbox, you have already arrived. The views offered by this summit are very good.
