Here is a possible route for hiking the Iparla ridges! ⚠️ Warning! This walk is demanding, particularly the final ‘ascent’ of the ridges. Best undertaken in dry weather.Between (4) and (7), there are some tricky or exposed sections, making this route suitable only for experienced walkers with sure-footedness. The ridge includes a very steep and rocky climb (chimney) requiring the use of your hands. Not suitable for those prone to vertigo. Please read the warnings carefully.

This loop is a superb hike in Lower Navarre, taking you in turn to the peaks of Lindus, Xaxperro and Sorotepo. This ridge route between France and Spain offers total immersion in the open, wild landscapes of the Basque Country. Throughout the route, panoramic views of the Baigorri valley, the surrounding Basque peaks and, on a clear day, the High Pyrenees follow one after another. A complete itinerary, between high-altitude pastures, airy ridges and a pastoral atmosphere, ideal for hikers in search of tranquillity and wide open spaces.
