Located to the north of Vitoria, in a valley overlooked by the mountain ranges of Amboto and Urkiola, bordering on Guipúzcoa.
The location is known for the abundance and quality of its waters, which led to the prospering of bathing spas and ironworks, none of which survive to the present day.
The town runs alongside the River Aramaio and the road that joined Vitoria and Mondragón.
