Peñas de Itsusi depuis le Col de Mehatze
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.
Iguzki Peak and Peñas de Itsusi from Col des Veaux
A superb circular which, from Iguzki, takes us through the Peñas de Itsusi, with its steep cliffs and impressive vulture promontories.
Peña d'Itsusi and vultures
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).

The Alkurruntz tour from Urdax
From the beautiful little Navarran village of Urdax, we set off to conquer Alkuruntz. There are several picnic spots to choose from and the view is magnificent on both the French and Spanish sides.
Ascent to La Rhune from the station at Col de Saint-Ignace
From the Rhune mini-train station, this hike climbs to the summit at 905 metres. The trail crosses moors, pastures and small woods, offering progressive views of the Basque Coast and the Pyrenees. Along the way, pottoks and mountain birds punctuate the ascent. At the summit, the 360° panorama reveals the ocean on one side and the Pyrenean mountain range on the other, rewarding your efforts with a spectacular natural spectacle.
Around Bera
A ridge route above the town of Bera, taking you from the Col de Lizuniaga, on the French-Spanish border, to Bera.
The Haute Route des Pyrénées is not yet very high at this point.
In the footsteps of the old Ascain-Sare tramway
Did you know that a tramway used to run through the hinterland from the coast (Hendaye, Ciboure) to Sare via Ascain? That was before the car became popular in 1936. This hike takes you along its route, based on available archives. The landscape has preserved the memory of this journey, which you can discover during this excursion under the watchful eye of Mont Esnaur.
From Saint Jean-Pied-de-Port to Bidarray
A beautiful stage in the Pyrenean foothills along country lanes.
From Saint-Jean-Pied-de-Port to Roncesvalles
The forty-sixth stage of the Camino de Santiago. A physically demanding stage, featuring the ascent of the Pyrenees, splendid views of the surrounding Basque Country if the weather permits, free-roaming herds, a sense of being high up, and the excitement of crossing into Spain.
After a long, steep descent, you arrive at the Monastery of Roncesvalles. Given the altitude of the finish point and the cool temperatures, I preferred the monastery dormitory to camping. From Saint-Jean-Pied-de-Port, a whole new journey begins. The landscapes are no longer the same, nor are the pilgrims. From here on, there are ten times as many people on the paths. Very few French people and lots of Koreans, Australians, Americans, Filipinos and, of course, Spaniards. From here on, you have to speak Spanish or English or use Google Translate. But you always manage to make yourself understood and get by. That’s the magic of the Camino de Santiago.
