Jugo is a very small village, also known as a hamlet, located in the Basque Country region of Spain. It is part of the Zuia municipality in the Álava province. In 2020, only 35 people lived there, making it a quiet and peaceful place.

Location of Jugo

Jugo is situated in the northern part of Spain. It is about 21 kilometers (about 13 miles) northwest of Vitoria-Gasteiz. Vitoria-Gasteiz is the capital city of the Álava province and the Basque Country. This means Jugo is close enough to a larger city for supplies but far enough away to feel like a calm, rural escape.

Jugo is one of these councils within the Zuia municipality. This system helps manage local services and decisions for the people living in these smaller areas.
