-Country (2/18/2011) Inspecting Martxa Padura June 5 - Arrigorriaga - Bizkaia

I'm free I join Monica, Alex, Axier and Fernando have been today to inspect the course of the Alpine Club VI Martxa Padura that will take place on June 5.

Here I leave a map of the route (click on image to enlarge):

(First of all apologize for the quality of the photos but I forgot the camera at home, I had to do with the phone while trying to follow these hares, and so have left ...) We left at

from the clubhouse located in the neighborhood of Kubo in Arrigorriaga.

crossed the footbridge over the main road BI-625, and go to give the Altamira neighborhood passing by the large green pipe Water Consortium.

The track runs parallel to the path of the motorway A-8 ....

... but with a more interesting environment.

no way to take a picture these people as they rise without blurring ... go rhythmites.

We gain altitude quickly.

We reached a stage it strikes an area flanking running over flat terrain, which is appreciated.

Let's give a forest, we pass to the left of the rail climbing through the trees ....

... up to a pretty pass where we stop for a moment to replenish fluids while enjoying the views.

We continued path: Upo summit in the background.

We went into another wooded area.

Down the slippery (in installments) path.

Leaving the forest we will give to a stretch in which they appear yellow poles that mark the route of the underground gas pipe.

A very beautiful stretch this fall "of gas."

converges with the muddy track that will take us to Lekubaso.

stop (finally) to pick something Lekubaso edge of the reservoir.

After lunch we take a track located at the foot of the reservoir that is quickly gaining altitude.

We are located on the east slope of Mount Upo, where we can enjoy a long stretch of the route of a beautiful panorama.

Ganekogorta alla the background.

walked down this road and we hit the concrete track that goes up the road from the quarries of Zaratamo to the hermitage of San Sigismondo. The way (upstream) for a stretch and a very tight left-hander we left to take the path along the cliff Emandotroka and take us to the neighborhood of Burbustu.

already spotted Arrigorriaga.

Pastorekorta and her feet "unsightly" cement.

descend toward the Altamira neighborhood ...

... and now we can only approach to one of the bars in town to take a couple of beers and to so terminate this beautiful circular route with minor modifications will be where the Martxa will run the Padura Alpine Club this year.
