A HIDDEN PARADISE IN ENKARTERRI
In few places does nature manifest itself with such splendor as in the Armañón Natural Park. Among its peaks and forests extends an infinite tangle of paths and more than two hundred caves.
Armañón is one of the natural jewels of Enkarterri. The park extends between the municipalities of Karrantza and Turtzioz and is characterized by its ecologically rich karst landscapes. Thanks to these stone massifs, Armañón enjoys a unique microclimate that has allowed Mediterranean oak and beech forests to grow just a few kilometers from the Cantabrian coast.
In this highly rural territory there are still several breeds of native livestock easily recognizable during a visit to the Park's surroundings: the Carranzana blond-faced and black-faced sheep, the Encartaciones sheepdog and the Monchina cow are just some of them.
