Irun: history incarnate from bridge to bridge

The “From Bridge to Bridge” path in Irun is a highly recommendable way to explore the town on foot, following the course of the River Bidasoa. This route connects the Avenida Bridge with the Behobia Bridge, two historic crossings over the Bidasoa which have borne witness to the historic transit through – and life in – this border area.

Along the way, you’ll find accessible footpaths, green spaces and riverside areas that invite you to enjoy the tranquillity of the surroundings at your leisure. The route takes in parks, footbridges and viewing points, where you can observe the biodiversity and everyday life of the area that stretches along the river.

This is a perfect plan for families and for bike rides or peaceful, easy walks, to experience nature, culture and everyday life in a setting steeped in history and beauty.
