The Valley of Ultzama, whose capital is Larraintzar, lies in the north-west of Navarre just 25 kilometres from Pamplona. It is an idyllic valley of green meadows, surrounded by oak and beech woods and dotted with tiny, impeccably-kept villages. It is well worth touring them to admire the huge stone houses with their gabled roofs, their semicircular arches doorways, their huge eaves and broad balconies stretching along the entire façade. Is an undulating valley whose infinite shades of green give a thousand nuances to its woods and meadows, one where brushstrokes have carefully painted in tiny villages with imposing farmhouses and broad balconies filled with flowers. This is Ultzama, a peaceful corner of Navarre that will seduce you with its scenery and its magnificent cuisine, in which meats and wild mushrooms are the stars.
