Larrau walks

A circuit a dozen or so kilometers long in a green area among forests, streams and waterfalls. And especially crossing the Holzarté bridge which is the headline event of this quite demanding hike. If it is too physically demanding, you can turn around once you have seen the bridge.

From the Nive de Béhérobie in Estérençuby, head up one of its tributaries, the Bihurriko Erreka, to discover the peaceful heights where shepherds and their sheep reign supreme. The Azketa huts are inhabited during the summer grazing season. They shelter beautiful Basque-Béarnaise horned sheep. These pastures are also popular with pottoks, the small Basque horses.

A hike around Saint-Jean-Pied-de-Port to discover a unique feature of Basque architecture in this part of Navarre, then share a "piece of the journey" with pilgrims on their way to Santiago de Compostela.

A short, well-shaded loop to explore the village of Lees and its surroundings. No difficulty except for carefully following the route at the numerous junctions and crossroads. Don't forget to look up, as the view over the Bedous valley is vast and picturesque! The starting point is easily accessible: the bus stop (on the N134) is very close by.

A beautiful loop around the hospitable center of Roncesvalles, an important stage in the pilgrimage to Santiago de Compostela.Roncesvalles is called Roncesvalles in Castilian, or Orreaga in Basque. The route passes through the village of Auritz (in Basque) or Burguete (in Castilian).

One of the best-known paths in the Pyrenees, carved into the steep rock above the Gorges d'Enfer. The Chemin de la Mâture still echoes with the blows of the pickaxes of the convicts who dug it. An unforgettable page of history!

A version of the Foz discovery trail from the top, on a balcony, but with lots of forest sections. This route isn't better than the others, it's just different, particularly at the end to avoid the return journey via too many roads.For the panoramic photos that adventurers want to take high above the cliff, I recommend a piece of rope tied to a tree.

This hike climbs steeply over a short distance but the path is passable. The hike takes you to Lake Escalar and the Col des Moines. It offers a variety of viewpoints.

This loop from Lumbier takes you to a hermitage, a ridge trail with fine views, two mineral arches and the Foz de Lumbier. An alternative to the small loop starting from the paying car park at Foz de Lumbier, the first part of which is not very interesting. This hike is for experienced hikers only.

The Foz de Lumbier is a gorge carved out of the mountain by the Irati River. Both ends are narrow, making it an exceptional nature reserve. The Foz can be traversed without difficulty via a path that follows the route of an old railroad line.
