Uterga

Uterga is a small village and concejo (a type of local administrative entity) located in the municipality of Guesálaz, in the Merindad of Estella, Navarre, Spain. It is situated in the foothills of the Sierra del Perdón mountain range.

The village lies on the Camino de Santiago (the Way of St. James pilgrimage route), and while significantly smaller than other locations on the route, it provides services for pilgrims. Historically, Uterga's economy has been primarily agricultural, though tourism related to the Camino has become increasingly important. Its population is small and typical of rural Navarre, experiencing fluctuations linked to migration and demographic changes.

Local landmarks typically include the parish church and possibly traditional Navarran architecture. Information on the exact history of Uterga is relatively scarce compared to larger towns and cities, but it shares a common history with the surrounding region, impacted by the political and economic events of Navarre.
