Departure from Nousty (Pyrénées-Atlantiques)
Easy country hike around Nousty, starting from the village centre with its beautiful buildings and wash house.
On this very rural route, the Houn de Moussu is a local curiosity, a fountain providing water that is very good for your health, according to the elders. Legend has it that Henri IV drank from it when travelling from Pau to Coarraze.
There is a viewpoint shortly after the 419-metre altitude on the Chemin Henri IV.
The return through the fields, crossing fords, adds extra charm to the outing.
