Ekain

Feel the prehistory

Ekain is the best kept underground treasure in the Basque Country. For decades, the valuable paintings in this Palaeolithic cave had to be protected from mass visits. So in 2008, Ekainberri opened in Zestoa as a more than true representation, very close to the original artistic sanctuary.
Interesting for you
Ekainberri offers activities such as Experimental Archaeology and the Ekain Adventure, where you can learn to hunt wild animals, get to know the flora and fauna of the period and paint, make fire and cook just like they did 14,500-10,000 years ago.
