Description of the municipality

Leiva is located in the valley/basin of the River Tirón, one of the tributaries of the Ebro, which means its economy is based on agriculture, both irrigated and dry.

 

Some of the first routes used to travel the St James’ Way to Santiago were precisely Roman roads. One passed through Leiva, and there are still some traces of it there.
