The 4-kilometre out-and-back route is relatively easy and suitable for all ages. It follows traditional paths and tracks along the right bank of the Salazar River, a Special Conservation Area. The path initially runs alongside riverside vegetation, then climbs through fields to reach areas of grey-blue marl typical of the Pre-Pyrenean Basins, where Cretaceous sea deposits emerge. The Tower of San Gregorio archaeological site features a visible tower and a small enclosure. The site offers views over the Salazar River, the Leyre Mountains, and the Pre-Pyrenean landscape. An interpretive panel provides information about the 15th-century medieval watchtower, which is included in the Archaeological Inventory of Navarre.
