The Caves of Sare Nature Reserve in Sare

An original approach to the underground world!

At the Caves of Sare, visitors will be able to hear, in the depths of the earth, the echo of a human adventure that has lasted for millennia...

In the heart of a remarkable natural and historical territory, a particular emotion emerges there. Feel this bond that has always united us with nature, this relationship through which our beliefs and our cultures have emerged.

The visit to the caves of Sare pays homage to the famous anthropologist JM de BARANDIARAN who studied and transcribed this relationship between mythology, site and culture.

In the caves of Sare, the sound and light guided tour is aimed at young and old. It lasts 1 hour and covers Geology, Prehistory, Mythology and Origins of the Basque people.

The megalithic park and the site museum make it possible to complete the guided tour, with free access.

Relaxation and restoration:
A bar area is open all year round, picnic tables are available and a fast food service is offered in summer.

Then extend the exploration of our territory by taking the hiking trails starting from the Caves of Sare to discover the village of Sare and the neighboring villages of Urdax, Ainhoa and Zugarramurdi!
