A town crisscrossed by paths through the mountains, along the river, and steeped in history.
Nestled among mountain ranges, valleys, and the Ega River, Acedo enjoys a privileged location between the Lóquiz and Codés mountain ranges and the La Berrueza Valley. This makes it an excellent starting point for exploring some of the most authentic landscapes of Tierra Estella.
The historic Basque-Navarre Railway Greenway runs through Acedo, offering an ideal route for walking or biking through tunnels, viaducts, old railroad tracks, and river landscapes along the Ega River.
The Church of Our Lady of the Assumption, the Cabo de Armería Palace, the historic Molino Nuevo Bridge, and the legacy of the old railroad make Acedo a town where history, nature, and rural tradition come together.
Acedo can be enjoyed year-round. Spring and fall are especially recommended for exploring the Greenway and enjoying the scenery along the river and in the nearby mountains. Summer is ideal for combining nature, relaxation, and the local atmosphere, while winter offers a more peaceful experience, perfect for those looking to unwind.
Acedo is a small village situated at a historic crossroads, between the Lóquiz and Codés mountain ranges and the La Berrueza Valley, on the western border of Navarre with Álava. It is a municipality that forms part of the Mendaza district. Its strategic location, bordered by the Ega River and crisscrossed by ancient trade routes, makes it an ideal starting point for exploring mid-mountain landscapes, river routes, and truly authentic rural settings.
The town center retains a well-preserved and compact layout, featuring the parish church of Nuestra Señora de la Asunción, the Cabo de Armería Palace, and several civil buildings from the 16th and 17th centuries. Life in the town centers around the square, featuring the fronton court, the old railroad station, and buildings that bear witness to a past linked to agriculture, milling, timber, and the passage of travelers.
The Basque-Navarre Railway Greenway Nature Trail runs through the town’s municipal area—an easy route to explore on foot or by bike that connects the town to the Ega River, the historic Molino Nuevo Bridge (dating back to medieval times), and with unique landmarks such as the Arquijas tunnel and viaduct. Traditional trails also lead to natural viewpoints, areas of Mediterranean holm oak woodland, and routes that connect to the Lana Valley and the nearby mountain ranges.
The patron saint festivities in honor of Our Lady of the Assumption, held in July, are complemented by pilgrimages to San Gregorio Ostiense, the Codés Shrine, and the Virgin of Arquijas. Added to this is a vibrant rural tradition, a campground that brings life to the town year-round, and small initiatives focused on nature tourism, relaxation, and the leisurely enjoyment of the landscape.
