Caserio Montehermoso, committed to ethical tourism
On 23 May 2022, we attended an event held in Bilbao to recognise the 530 organisations committed to the Basque Tourism Code of Ethics, which is based on the 17 Sustainable Development Goals set out in the 2030 Agenda.

The Añana District therefore demonstrates an impressive commitment to responsible and sustainable tourism, which we believe should be congratulated. (You can consult the complete register here).
During the event, which was held at the Azkuna Zentroa, the President of the Basque Government, Iñigo Urkullu, and the Minister of Tourism, Javier Hurtado, underlined the importance of the tourism sector in the Basque economy.
In fact, 10% of jobs come from this wonderful industry, which we love so much. We hope to continue developing our ethical, social and sustainable philosophy for many years to come, and those who visit Caserío Montehermoso, Osingain and the Añana district will benefit from an economic activity that is, above all, responsible.
