Clasica ascension al monte Gorbea desde las canteras de Murua haciendo la ruta circular uniendo las cimas de Gorbea, Aldamin y Azero.

Partiendo desde las canteras de Murua se coje el camino sin perdida alguna que nos subira hasta la misma cima del Gorbea, los 2 primeros kilometros son por pista rota y segun se vaya ascendiendo poco a poco se ira covirtiendo en sendero

Una vez salido del bosque se pone mas tieso y roto pero es poco tramo, luego ya se suaviza hasta la cruz.

PRECIOSA PANORAMICA DE GRAN PARTE DE LOS MONTES DE BIZKAIA Y ARABA!!

Se desciende al collado de Aldamin por la clasica subida que viene de Pagomakurre (bizkaia) y de recto por la pedrera en pocos minutos se alcanza la cima de Aldamin.

Descendido otra vez al collado por la misma senda seguimos bajando hacia Arimekorta pero a la altura del monte Dulao se abandona la senda principal para cojer otra hacia la derecha direccion el monte Azero.

Saliendo del bosque y tras pasar unas bordas en pocos metros y minutos se alcanza la cima del Azero.
Todo este recorrido es una verdadera pasada viendo a nuestras espaldas y al frente gran parte del recorrido que hemos realizado.

Foto de rigor con el buzon y ya solo quedan 3 kilometros de bajada hasta el parking de las canteras de Murua.
