Yerri: Holiday apartment, Ubagua River Canyon and monastic culture

Yerri: The Ubagua River Canyon is a 5.78-kilometre linear hike of low difficulty with an elevation gain of 329 metres. The trail connects Riezu in the Yerri Valley with Lezáun, leads to the Ubagua spring and crosses a short Tibetan bridge.

For planning purposes, the route can be assessed by its length, elevation gain and the waypoints mentioned. You can decide for yourself which of these aspects to give greater weight to.

Nature

The Yerri Valley is located in the Urbasa-Andía Nature Park. The landscape of the Yerri Valley includes 1,269 hectares of holm oak forest, 340 hectares of beech forest and 80 hectares of oak and Portuguese oak forest. The Urbasa y Andia mountain range is a protected natural area where you can explore on foot or by bicycle.

For planning purposes, these natural features can be distinguished by scale and activity. A single route, forest areas and a protected natural area represent different levels of reference if you do not wish to consider movement and landscape from the same perspective. Among the natural attractions, you can distinguish between a specifically described route and broader landscapes.

Water

Alloz Reservoir lies between the Yerri Valley and Guesálaz. From the Yerri Valley, Alloz Reservoir can be reached from Úgar or Villanueva. The valleys of Guesálaz and Yerri can be explored from the water on a sailing boat trip.

Anyone wishing to compare travel by land and by water can consider them as separate activity themes. The differences between fixed routes and a trip on the water can be kept separate when compiling personal interests.
