Urdaibai Biosphere Reserve
Urdaibai Biosphere Reserve is a magnificent and diverse nature reserve. It is composed of river valleys, salt marshes, coastal cliffs, oak forests, and tranquil bays, where land and water meet to create a rich landscape. The river within the reserve flows into a wide estuary, where wetlands and sandy beaches intertwine on both banks, appearing even more poetic in the morning mist or at sunset. Stepping into this area, you can stroll along the trails through the oak forests or overlook the intersection of the coastal cliffs and the deep blue water. The wetlands are home to various migratory birds, making it a paradise for birdwatchers. During migration season, the fluttering wings in the sky add a touch of vibrancy to the place. The seaside beaches are gentle yet retain a wild charm, with waves gently lapping against the sandy shore. Visitors can take a walk on the beach or gaze out at the seascape from the headlands. It also preserves Basque culture and the charm of fishing villages, with quiet towns along the coast that are rich in traditional atmosphere.Gernika-Bermeo · 25.2km from Durango

Zubizuri
Zubizuri was completed in 1994 and designed by Calatrava. The parabolic arch stands 14.6m high and is formed from a curved steel pipe with a diameter of 75 cm, resulting in an exquisite design. The bridge's technical design is also rigorous, featuring 6 shock absorbers, which allowed Calatrava to create a pedestrian bridge that spans the Nervion River and complements the city's style while largely ensuring its structural integrity.Bilbao · 26.2km from Durango

The cable ferry bridge transports vehicles and pedestrians to the other side of the river through a huge bridge box. You can also take the elevator to the top of the bridge, walk on it, and enjoy the entire cityscape of Bilbao.
The one-way ticket price is 4.5€.

A very beautiful place. If you're on a tour bus, be prepared for a hike, bring comfortable shoes and water; there are no cafes or restaurants at the very end.
If you're looking for a budget option, you can take a bus from Bilbao to Bakio, then walk 3 km.
