This is a tough route that passes through some very little known areas of great beauty and interest, such as the Chapel of Santa Teodosia, which affords us an incredible view over the Arana Valley and the Chapel of Santa Lucía, a perfect spot to regain our strength or refill the water bottle. In case of fatigue, it is advisable to leave the route in San Vicente de Arana and descend to Orbiso via the Igoroin Route.
This route departs from the Antoñana Information Point [km 0] just outside the village, beside the road at the former weighbridge. We cross the road with care and enter the village of Antoñana. Behind the village there is an asphalted track that leads to Sabando [km 8]. We turn off it after 500 metres and continue climbing through the forest along a challenging track.
After the ascent, a rapid descent brings us back to the Sabando road, which we follow and at the end, we take a track that leads us directly to the village. On the other side of the village, we take the track that climbs up towards the Bitigarra meadows [km 11,45]. Our route now joins the Igoroin route. We continue climbing up to the summit (the box on the top is difficult to see and the views are not good from here), then descending through the beech forest to the Chapel of Santa Teodosia [km 14,30] (good views over the Arana Valley).
We continue downhill through the forest to San Vicente de Arana [km 16,50] and, before entering the village, turn left to follow tracks towards Alda [km 19,30]. From here a track heads up to Alto del Mojón Largo [km 22], which marks the start of a long, scenic descent that passes some old charcoal kilns before crossing a ravine and coming to the Chapel of Santa Lucia [km 27]. From here we follow the road to Orbiso [km 29] and then carry on downhill to Santa Cruz de Campezo.
We reach the A-132 road and take the track that runs parallel to it, the Basque-Navarrese former railway line. Keeping on this cycle track, we pass a block of chalets and Santa Cruz de Campezo on our left [km 32]. We then cross the A-2128 road with care which passes perpendicularly in the direction of San Vicente de Arana and, a little further on, cross the A-132 road over a large wooden bridge. We continue along a stretch that runs parallel to the road until coming to a series of bridges that cross the Berrón River, where there is a shady, rest area beside the river.

After a long flat stretch, we abandon the original route of the former Basque–Navarrese railway line and head up a short steep hill to the right, then veering left above the track we have just left over an old stone bridge. We come to a narrow road and turn right to return to the Antoñana information point [km 38,66], just 300 metres further on.
