RouteXpert Review There are no scheduled stops for refueling, eating or drinking. When the opportunity presents itself, stop at one of the points indicated by a POI. Along the way there are several small villages with restaurants or cafes.
Hotels, sights and recommended points to stop to enjoy the view are also marked with a POI.
The 4th day we drive from Jaca to Bilbao through a large nature reserve in the Pyrenees. Part of the route is part of the Pilgrimage route to Santiago de Compestella, which is indicated with blue signs. This route contains many beautiful roads through the mountains, so a guaranteed bend feast. The asphalt is of good quality and the panoramas along the way are breathtaking. The town of Tolosa (RP21) is well worth a visit.
Along the way you pass several beautiful places to stop for a photo, some are marked with a Route point;
RP3 and 4 Tunnels in the rocks.
RP6. the NA-176 road with beautiful hairpin bends
RP8. Roncesvalles Road
RP10 Carr. del Quinto Real
RP11. Dam; Embalse de Eugi
RP21. Tolosa
RP25. Puerto de Azcárate
RP30. Bilbao
I appreciate this route with 5 stars because of the beautiful winding roads and beautiful panoramas

About this region
The Basque Country (; Basque: Euskadi [eus̺kadi]; Spanish: País Vasco [paˈiz ˈβasko]; French: Pays Basque), also called Basque Autonomous Community (Basque: Euskal Autonomia Erkidegoa, EAE; Spanish: Comunidad Autónoma Vasca, CAV) is an autonomous community in northern Spain. It includes the Basque provinces of Álava, Biscay, and Gipuzkoa.
The Basque Country or Basque Autonomous Community was granted the status of nationality within Spain, attributed by the Spanish Constitution of 1978. The autonomous community is based on the Statute of Autonomy of the Basque Country, a foundational legal document providing the framework for the development of the Basque people on Spanish soil. Navarre, which had narrowly rejected a joint statute of autonomy with Gipuzkoa, Álava and Biscay in 1932, was granted a separate statute in 1982.
Currently there is no official capital in the autonomous community, but the city of Vitoria-Gasteiz, in the province of Álava, is the de facto capital as the location of the Basque Parliament, the headquarters of the Basque Government, and the residence of the President of the Basque Autonomous Community (the Palace of Ajuria Enea). The High Court of Justice of the Basque Country has its headquarters in the city of Bilbao. Whilst Vitoria-Gasteiz is the largest municipality in area, with 277 km2 (107 sq mi), Bilbao is the largest in population, with 353,187 people, located in the province of Biscay within a conurbation of 875,552 people.
The term Basque Country may also refer to the larger cultural region (Basque: Euskal Herria), the home of the Basque people, which includes the autonomous community.
