Labastida is also a starting point for journeys into very different landscapes. Mountains, wetlands, gorges, river sources and mountain villages are within a reasonable distance for day trips, before returning to the gentle pace of Rioja Alavesa.

The surrounding area offers a choice of gentle walks, waterside trails, open viewpoints, salt landscapes, ravines and mountain villages. Different outings with one thing in common: they all offer a broader perspective on this land.

  • Añana Salt Pans · 35 km
    A salt landscape with more than 7,000 years of history. Its terraces, channels and salt pans form one of the world’s oldest salt-producing complexes, transformed in Roman times with a natural evaporation system that still helps explain what makes this place unique.
  • Berganzo Water Trail · 25 km
    An easy, rewarding walk among beech woods, waterfalls, pools and small cascades. A nearby trail that completely changes the feel of the day.
  • Obarenes Mountains and nearby villages · 25-35 km
    A nearby outing to explore mountain ranges, gorges and stone-built villages between La Rioja and Burgos. Cellorigo or Sajazarra, recognised as one of Spain’s most beautiful villages, make good stops on a leisurely journey through the area.
  • Source of the Nervión · 80 km
    One of the area’s great natural landscapes, with a spectacular waterfall when there is enough water and an open viewpoint over the Delika valley.
  • Laguardia Lagoons · 22 km
    A group of wetlands beside the vineyards, very close to the walled town of Laguardia. A peaceful walk for birdwatching, enjoying the scenery and discovering another side of Rioja Alavesa.
  • Leza Valley · 55 km
    A landscape of ravines, rock and silence, with the River Leza canyon as one of its main attractions. An outing into a wilder, less familiar side of La Rioja.
  • Ezcaray · 60 km
    One of Spain’s most beautiful villages and one of La Rioja’s leading mountain destinations. Nature, gastronomy, traditional architecture and, in winter, the nearby Valdezcaray ski resort.
