Izenaduba is a magical forest! Olentzero (one of the jentilaks or giants in Basque mythology), the galtzagorris (a type of imp otherwise known as Red Pants), Mari (a goddess), the lamiak (creatures with bird-like feet), Basajaun (Lord of the forest), Tartalo (a one-eyed giant)...
Our main aim is for children to learn about mythology, nature and Basque traditions in a fun way, through these characters and the visit to the park, while at the same time being educational. Izenaduba Basoa is the first mythological theme park in the Basque Country. We want to give children the opportunity to have an unforgettable day, while learning at the same time.
This is why we designed Izenaduba Basoa, to be a magical place brimful with possibilities. The Olentzero's Baserri: In the Olentzero's magical home children will learn about mythology and nature in a magical setting by playing interactive games and using new technologies. Guided tours: Guided tours for groups of 30-35 people maximum. Information in both Basque and Spanish.

Outdoor themed attractions: 6000 square metres of themed attractions (Mari¿s cave, the Labyrinth, Tartalo and the Sacred Oak...) for children to steep themselves in our mythology while at play. There is a Tourist Information Point at Reception in the centre.
