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.

Moderate
Departure from Bidarray (Pyrénées-Atlantiques)
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.

Moderate
Departure from Bidarray (Pyrénées-Atlantiques)
This is an alternative route to the Pic d'Iparla. It starts a little higher up and avoids the additional detour that was recently put in place to avoid a farm and the degraded sections ofthe GR®10.
Be warned, this hike is not an easy one. The first 250 metres are challenging. The rest of the route along grassy tracks is very pleasant, with magnificent views of the ridges and Irubelakaskoa. The panorama from the ridges and the summit is spectacular.
