CUISINE BASED ON LOCAL PRODUCTS AND WINES
And of course, in addition to being able to eat at the campsite restaurant, where we always have the best seasonal products, you can find a number of villages nearby with restaurants and shops where you can try or buy the famous piquillo peppers or the delicious asparagus of Navarra, both of which have their own Designation of Origin and are capable of delighting the most discerning palates.
We cannot forget Navarra wines, cheeses with Designation of Origin or Navarra’s famous pochas beans, which are harvested and eaten in the summer months and can be purchased at local shops and markets.
The campsite is an associate of the Wine Route, rutadelvinodenavarra.com, on which you can find a selection of highly professional, quality wineries and tourist establishments which invite you to savour the pleasures of the good life and discover this land’s wine culture. Enter the website and discover the routes suggested according to the type of trip you want to do and the seasonal activities on offer, and let yourself be seduced by this unique way of transmitting all the essences and aromas, the history and living nature which inhabit all Navarra wines.
In addition to all the above, take a look at the website Tierras de Irantzu, where you will find other things to do in the area such as paragliding, mountain bike routes, trekking, gastronomic routes, although the highlight will always be the natural environment, including the Alloz reservoir, which you can enjoy first-hand at Camping Aritzaleku.

EVERYTHING YOU CAN DO IN THE CAMPING SITE AND SURROUNDINGS
One of the activities you can try on the Alloz reservoir, on whose shores the campsite sits, is sailing. Whether you want to learn or already know, the services of the Navarra Sailing School, which operates on the reservoir, are at your full disposal.
The campsite has its own jetty, so you can stay at a campsite with all the amenities and enjoy sailing all in the same place. The Sierras of Andía and Urbasa (home to the source of the Urederra river) delimit the mountainous north of Middle Navarra and surround the village of Riezu , the source of the Ubagua river, which flows into the Alloz reservoir. An area with a wealth of natural beauty.
From Puente La Reina (where the routes join) to Estella, the Way of St James marks its historical and artistic significance with beautiful examples of Gothic and Romanesque architecture, such as the Cloister of the Monastery of Iranzu in Abárzuza.
Estella-Lizarra was founded in 1090 due to the need to attend the growing influx of pilgrims from all over Europe on their way to Santiago. Important examples of Romanesque (San Pedro Cloister in the Church of San Pedro) Gothic (façade of El Santo Sepulcro, Convent of Santo Domingo) and Plateresque architecture enrich a remarkably cultural city.
Middle Navarra is the home of great wine and tasty, varied cuisine, based on local products.
