Tips

Ostabat is a very beautiful, old place with narrow streets and only 285 inhabitants. It is located directly on the GR65 and is only one stage away from St-Jean-Pied-de-Port.

Shortly before Ostabat, the GR65 goes through a narrow ravine and then climbs into the village, because Ostabat is on a hill and can therefore be seen from afar.

Ostabat was probably founded in the 10th century by the lords of Luxe and Lantabat and became an important stage of the pilgrimage to Saint-Jacques-de-Compostelle.

In the financial census of 1350 there were twenty inns, two hospitals and three churches in Ostabat. During this time, Ostabat was able to accommodate several thousand pilgrims per day.

Once again we have reached a milestone on the "Via Podiensis", our pilgrimage route to St. James (Chemin de Saint Jacques) through France; and here in Ostabat, too, our small group of pilgrims is impressed by the beautiful atmosphere of the place. But we still have to move on the next morning... still the short way to Saint-Jean Pied-de-Port, and then - after crossing the Pyrenees - further on the "Camino Frances" through northern Spain to the tomb of the Apostle in Santiago de Compostela, Galicia.
