ハスパーレンの絶景の山頂・トップ10

For me, this is one of the most difficult passes to climb, with astonishing gradients, exceeding 16% in some places. The view from the summit is magnificent, but be careful, the road is very narrow on the descent. An experience not to be missed for lovers of cycling and intense effort.

Avoid public holidays and vacation periods...

Although short, the ascent of Mount Artzamendi is classified as an hors catégorie due to its steep slopes. This is especially the case after kilometer 7, where the gradient often hovers around 15%, peaking at 20%.

Very beautiful hike, quite difficult, it climbs steeply from the start. Superb view of the Pyrenees, mountains and the Basque coast. Variant on this route, going up, turn right before starting the ascent along the ridge line... easier. End of hike, poorly described with a return to the village very far from the fronton parking lot. D or my turn back at the end. Have a good hike 🥾🌶️⛰️

Mount Artzamendi is reached by a short but particularly demanding climb. From Laxia, the climb is 5.6 kilometers at an average of 11% with passages at 19%. At the top, the panorama of the Basque Country extends practically to the Atlantic coast.

Mount Baïgura culminates at 897 meters in the province of Labourd. Its position set back from the chain offers an exceptional belvedere on the Pyrenees.

The Artzamendi rises to 924 meters above sea level, making it the highest point in the province of Labourd. The "mountain of the bear" in Basque is identifiable by its large white ball which serves as a civilian radar station. This summit offers a very nice 360 degree panorama.
