A Good Idea
The visit to the Orozko Museum is only the first part of the trip. It is the gateway to continue exploring the Orozko Valley and enjoy its natural beauty and great ethnographic heritage.
Both in the Orozko Valley and in the Gorbeia Natural Park, ethnographic elements of great interest are preserved: stelae, iceboxes, caves, hedgehogs... We recommend that after visiting the museum, you take a tour so that you can see for yourself the archaeological riches that surround us.
