ルカンベリーのおすすめツーリングルート

There is a restaurant upstairs (actually several, but only one was open in July)

Walk from the Ispeguy pass, narrow path, best worn in hiking shoes, some scree slopes, magnificent view!

Excellent advice and interesting wines

As you hike, approach the Saint-Jean-Pied-de-Port gate for a truly historic experience. This iconic entrance, known as the Porte Saint-Jacques, welcomes you with its impressive stone arch. Take time to admire the gate’s old-world charm and the stunning views of the surrounding Basque countryside before exploring the cobbled streets of this picturesque town.

Before starting the climb: check the weather forecast and make sure you have the appropriate clothing. The climb can be done in the clouds (fog) towards the end. A fluorescent vest is not an exaggerated luxury. The road is sometimes narrow, the cars drive fast. For the descent, it is best to take a windbreaker and an undershirt with long sleeves. Light gloves prevent your hands from getting numb, which makes braking more difficult. At the top near the inn at the border crossing, horses walk freely on the road. During the descent along the Basque side you can meet a real pig (180+ kg) in the middle of the road.

Was covered in clouds when I went in May

Water break in the most gorgeous mountain town. Found much needed rest here after very long day on the bike

Stayed the night here, hosts were lovely :)
