San Juan de Gaztelugatxe, the Coast, an amazing Castle and Gernika

My favorite visits: An exciting trip to a medieval castle hidden in the woods, to be followed by amazing San Juan de Gaztelugatxe and the quaint coastal towns of Bermeo and Mundaka on the Urdaibai Biosphere Reserve, full of local charm and away from any tourist traps. And of course, historical Gernika, home to one of the oldest Parliaments in the world and so symbolic for us Basques.
