Departure from Cette-Eygun (Pyrénées-Atlantiques)
A circular walk offering a unique viewpoint over the centre of the Aspe Valley and the Bedous valley, with an alternative loop route along a signposted path. The Pic de Narbissat is a prime spot for geological observation, situated at the point where the Iberian tectonic plate slides beneath the Eurasian plate. It also offers a good vantage point over the surrounding mountains.
This circular route is only recommended in winter ( November to April), when the ferns no longer obstruct the path or visibility.

Departure from Cette-Eygun (Pyrénées-Atlantiques)
There is a fairly steep climb from Cette to the summer pastures above the village. The effort is well worth it, as the location and the view of the flocks of sheep on the grassy slopes are magnificent.To avoid the effect of going back the same way, we suggest two alternative routes to make the return journey more enjoyable.

Departure from Cette-Eygun (Pyrénées-Atlantiques)
A route taking in a beautiful viewpoint over the centre of the Aspe Valley and the Bedous Valley, along a signposted path. The Pic de Narbissat is a prime spot for geological observation, situated where the Iberian tectonic plate slides beneath the Eurasian plate. It also offers a good vantage point over the surrounding mountains.
This route is particularly recommended in spring and summer (May to October), when ferns can obstruct the path and reduce visibility off the main tracks. In winter, a different circular route is possible (see the ‘Pic de Narbissat via Les Muralhetas’ walk).

The Way of St James (Voie d’Arles – GR® 653) offers a lovely, easy and shaded route through the Aspe Valley, winding between gorges and sun-drenched valleys. We do not suggest it as a circular route here, as the train (TER line 55) allows you to return easily to your starting point.The route is suitable for all seasons; however, avoid wet periods!
Warning (2025): following the severe flooding in the Aspe Valley in September 2024, some sections of the path may be damaged. Check before setting off.
