Bidarray walks

This is a lovely route for enjoying peaceful, magnificent views of the modest but beautiful Basque hills and, above all, the Penas d'Ichusi.

A magnificent hike on theGR®10trail in the dizzying haunt of vultures. From the summit, on a clear day, you can see the Pyrenees mountain range as far as the Pic du Midi de Bigorre... and on the other side, the ocean as far as the Landes coast. Please note: the start ofthe GR® 10 behind the sheepfold is no longer accessible. The owner has prohibited access to his farm. Another route has been set up, which is 2 km longer and just as steep as the original hike.

A very beautiful hike with a variety of paths. Beautiful views of the Iparla mountain range throughout the climb. At the summit, there is a magnificent 360° view, as is often the case in the Basque Country. You can see the beaches of the Basque Country and Landes, the Béarn Mountains and, on a clear day, even the Hautes-Pyrénées. The climb to the summit is demanding and in places you will need to follow the description and GPS track carefully. There are no markings indicating this hike until (10), a nameless pass.

Magnificent hike with a picturesque climb to the Peñas, then a trail that runs along the cliffs where griffon vultures nest before descending. ⚠️ This hike should only be done in dry weather!The trail that passes through the cave (7) of the Saint who sweats is considered dangerous, even though it is part of the GR®10. See reviews.

A beautiful hike where you will discover the Saint-qui-Sue cave, the Itsuchi cliffs with vultures and goats, and the abandoned village.

This hike to the summit of Larla from Satali avoids the steep climb from Saint-Martin-d'Arrossa. You can learn about the mining activity that once took place here and enjoy superb views of the surrounding peaks.

Le Larla, 705 m, is a magnificent viewpoint over the mountains surrounding Saint-Étienne-de-Baïgorry, Saint-Jean-Pie-de-Port and the entire eastern face of Iparla with its majestic ridge.

This hike has an ideal profile, with a steep but steady climb and a gentle descent with beautiful landscapes to admire. The 360° view of Bégura is magnificent

Une vue splendide sur cette boucle qui surplombe les nichées de rapaces. Itinéraire déconseillé aux personnes sujettes au vertige, qui pourraient se sentir en peine dans certains endroits.

A hike that is different from the Peñas d'Itsusi from the Col de Mehatze, which closely follows the cliffs where vultures nest and continues on to views of the ocean and the Pic d'Iguzki (which can be climbed without difficulty). Visorando app recommended

A superb circuit that passes in front of the Gapelu amphitheatre (one of the most majestic sites in the Basque Country according to Miguel Angulo) and through the Col d'Iparla, which is a tough climb but is rewarded on reaching the ridges with a vast panorama stretching from the sea to the peaks of Orhy and Anie...

This is a beautiful hike that allows you to discover the Iparla ridges without having to climb the various peaks.

BaÏgura is one of the most beautiful viewpoints in the north of the Basque Country, with a 360° view of the mountains and the surrounding plain. Unfortunately, like many peaks, it is dotted with antennas, but they are very useful... It is a favourite spot for paragliders who jump from the top of the north face.

Climb gently to reach a beautiful viewpoint over the surrounding peaks and even the coast on a clear day.

Loop passing through Mount Ursuya, a peak jutting out from the hills.

A beautiful walk that crosses three promontories with stunning views.

Views of the Nive Valley, Mount Ursuya, Mount Baïgura and Mount Artzamendi.Encounter pottoks and small wild cows.You may see sheep, vultures and gliders.View of the Rhune and the ocean with Bayonne, Biarritz and Saint-Jean-de-Luz

A very beautiful route to reach Mondarrain via the north face. The summit passes at the foot of a climbing site. See Practical Information. The view from the summit is 360°, from the Basque Coast (Côte d'Argent) to the Béarn Pyrenees, passing by the peaks of Navarre.

There are several routes to the summit of Baigura, one of the Basque Country's most iconic peaks, renowned for its exceptional views. Starting from the village of Hélette, the climb is very varied. From the last houses to the nearby groves, it feels like you're setting off on a short walk to get some fresh air among the ferns. Then, as the morning light begins to gild the slopes of Erregelu and Ursuia, you find yourself drawn into a more ambitious hike, the view of the surrounding valleys becoming more beautiful as you gain height. Following a mountain path close to the ridges, the promontories follow one after the other and the summit of Erregelu, which seemed so far away, is now within reach. From its paragliding launch site, Baigura is already close by, and all that remains is to enjoy the panoramic view.

Beautiful views of Itxassou and Mount Ursuya, then Roland's Pass and the Nive Gorges.

A pleasant hike in the Basque Piedmont with beautiful scenery.

Oilarandoi is a magnificent viewpoint overlooking all the surrounding peaks. The nearby Munhoa and, further away, Iparla, Autza, Adarza and many others. At the summit, there was originally a hermitage, which was occupied from 1706 to 1792. The ruins were rebuilt twice, in 1941 and 1985. This hike includes sections with significant gradients of between 30 and 40%, but the reward is at the end and the view from the summit is well worth the effort.

Here's another way to do a nice loop in Ursuya. This hike is always on open ground on wide paths with magnificent views from the start to the summit. The end of the return journey is via the Iramalda and Harrixuri ridges with Cambo-les-Bains in front of you and, further away, Bayonne and, of course, the coast. On the left, you can see La Rhune, Mondarrain, Artzamendi, etc.

A very pretty loop that follows the French-Spanish border ridge, passing three passes. A very well-marked red and white path on the Spanish side allows you to pass under the ridges (for those prone to vertigo).

Far to the north, Mount Ursuya offers magnificent views of the Basque and Béarn mountains, the plain and the valleys of Piedmont.

I recommend this route if you want a short hike overlooking Cambo-les-Bains and the entire region. Most of it is in the forest, with an open view at the end. Quite a significant elevation gain for a short hike.

A beautiful hike along an oldPR® trail, which is unfortunately no longer well marked. The return journey is on gentler slopes than the outward journey. The end of the route crosses the vineyards of Irouleguy.

Beautiful walk on the ridges between the Gorramendi and Gorramakil peaks, with a magnificent view of the Baztan valley and, on the other side, the Pyrenees. Not very difficult, it can be done with the whole family.

This is a very beautiful hike that takes us to the first peak over 1,300 m from the ocean. It passes through very varied landscapes along the way. At the Col d'Elhorieta, there is an important megalithic site (cromlechs) that is worth a short detour. At the summit, there is a beautiful 360° view. The return trip along the ridges is truly magnificent in good weather.

A lovely, fairly short hike that will take you up to a 360° panoramic view around Garralda Peak.

A small spa town to visit during the hike. The route will take you around the village and allow you to discover many interesting sites. The mountains are not far away and the landscapes are magnificent. A walk that can be enjoyed with the whole family

The hike starts from the centre of the village of Espelette and heads towards the first hills to the south of the town, offering beautiful landscapes and a wide variety of environments and atmospheres. The hike is marked with yellow arrows and the name "Aldaxka".

An interesting route that takes you around local farmers, where you can buy Espelette peppers and sheep's cheese. A pleasant route through a charming village.

Ascent of Autza via Erratzu, in a circular fashion via the Xorroxin waterfalls. Unmarked hike, except for a short section on the GR® trail after the summit. Descent via the Xorroxin waterfalls, a point of interest. Hike without description to be followed using the Visorando app

It's a hike for the whole family through forests and past streams, with the reward being the superb Cascade de Xorroxin, source of the Baztan-Bidassoa river... and perhaps the discovery of the treasure guarded by the lamias beneath the waterfall.

You will discover an oak forest and pass through the Irouleguy vineyard with a panoramic view of Saint-Jean-Pied-de-Port and its surroundings. A very pleasant hike that will take you to the Pic de l'Arradoy. The small flower-lined path leading up to it is very pleasant before entering the damp, cool forest. Very pleasant in spring and summer as the hike is mostly shaded.

A lovely walk that takes you through a variety of landscapes, including open tracks, forest, pastures and, finally, vineyards.
