Environmental Center
The Network of Environmental Centers of Euskadi, Ekoetxea, awaits you with an offer of unique experiences for all audiences in emblematic places, aimed at improving awareness of the importance of caring for the environment and taking action by acquiring habits. sustainable on a daily basis. Ekoetxea Meatzaldea is an environmental center that has two headquarters located in the municipalities of Ortuella (Peñas Negras) and Abanto-Zierbena (Gallarta), which are characterized by being immersed in a unique place full of contrasts, due to the karst landscape and the transformation of the environment due to human industrial activity. We are faced with an extraordinary place to admire the beauty of the environment due to its geodiversity and the profound transformation of the Triano mountains by human action.
Discover one of the places with the highest density of caves in the Basque Country and how the limestone has given rise to a unique landscape.
Did you know that the environment is dotted with artificial lakes created by the flooding of the old mines?
Can you imagine discovering an authentic mining town with its parallel and narrow streets that converge at the Church of La Magdalena?
But there is still more! The natural heritage made up of forests, streams, pastures and heaths provide shelter to threatened species such as cave-dwelling bats, rock raptors and amphibians.
And of course, we cannot forget the cultural legacy associated with megalithic monuments and the vestiges of mining activity.
Do not let them tell you. Come and live it!
