Hello,
An easy hike to do in an afternoon when the weather is nice. Easy and free parking on 19/05/2021.
Before turning around at La Barre, enjoy the photos of the Basque Country before 1950 / now, located between the car park and the ecological park. You can visit the park (very trendy at the moment!).

Best regards

A very 'cool' and pleasant hike for an afternoon stroll, especially with the family (no uphill or downhill sections, flat path).
One small issue during this pandemic: almost no one is wearing a mask... well, wearing a mask while hiking is debatable, but...

It is one of the few mills in the Basque Country still in operation today, producing flour using traditional methods. The route follows part of the Bidart greenway, which can be extended to the sea by following the Uhabia.
