Stage of the Camino del Valle de Mena, historical branch that links Bizkaia with the Mena Valley in the province of Burgos. The 22 km cross the Ordunte Mountains through medium altitude passes, with a landscape of Atlantic forests and mountain meadows. Villasana de Mena is the capital of the Mena Valley, a region of Burgos with a strong identity of its own, rich Romanesque heritage and the fortress-tower of Lezana de Mena (14th century).
