Départ à Laruns (Pyrénées-Atlantiques)
Lake Isabe is one of the most beautiful and mysterious lakes in the Pyrenees and, in any case, a real gem set in a mineral landscape with steep cliffs. Towering above it, above the last snowfields of summer, rises the Pic de Sesques (or L'Escarbu). To reach it, you will have to traverse chaotic landscapes and climb a narrow couloir to reach an aerial ridge, but it is not dangerous. A beautiful mountain hike with a nice 1,700 m elevation gain over a fairly short distance of 14 km.

Départ à Laruns (Pyrénées-Atlantiques)
A return route offering a wide variety of scenery. A path linking the Ossau Valley, from Les Eaux-Chaudes, to the Aspe Valley above Accous. A total ascent of over 900 metres, but you can turn back whenever you like! The start of the walk is entirely in the shade, above Le Bitet, then you reach a very sunny plateau, before returning to the forest; the final section is in the sun all the way to the hut.

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.
