Villages

Amoroto
Discover an elegant square with rural architecture and aristocratic monuments, prehistoric sites and a relaxing area with restaurants and footpaths.
The town hall, the church and significant buildings such as the Abadetxea farmhouse are located in an elegant square. The art of rural architecture and aristocratic monuments is still in perfect condition.
These places were also inhabited thousands of years before Christ. The first human traces date back to prehistoric times, and there are several sites in the caves of Abitta and Pepetxo III.
In Iturriza's "Historia de Vizcaya" (History of Biscay), it says that Amoroto was called Amoredo and that there were quarries here that exploited limestone.
Relaxation area: rest in Oleta
This crossroads, known as Oleta, is located in the Ugaran neighbourhood, where the Gizaburuaga-Aulesti-Munitibar, Markina-Ondarroa and Lekeitio roads meet. Here you will find three well-known restaurants and the Lea footpath also passes through here. There is a play area for the whole family to enjoy.
