Bidegorri La Robla–Zalla

Highlight • Cycleway

Great way to approach Balmaseda through this "Bolunburu". You can go along both banks with your bike without any problem. Any of them are perfect to accompany Kadagua.

Beautiful place on the banks of the Kadagua, with lots of vegetation, bike path to Balmaseda and Zalla. Recreational area and a quite interesting set of ruins. Ideal to rest if you are doing the Kadagua Greenway.

Church of San Severino

Highlight • Religious Site

Religious sanctuary from the 15th century, located in the Plaza Mayor of Balmaseda. The building is Gothic in style, but due to some reforms carried out in the 18th century, some Baroque additions can be seen.
