Very nice except it is mainly road

The lively village of Tardets is worth a stop to enjoy the local atmosphere. The central square is very charming.

If you come to visit the Iparralde area... you can't miss it. It's worth a visit, either by bike or after the route. It has a lot of activity and life, especially in summer.

Starting point for several climbs that allow you to cross the border and reach Spain. It is a very quiet town where you can take a break and get water. I remember that on hot summer days... the heat is oppressive because there is a lot of humidity. It is a typical town in the area where you will also find some bars where you can have a drink.

It is a typical small village in Iparralde, right next to the main town Sant-Jean-Pied-Port-de-Port. There is nothing special about it, but if you pass by it, you should enjoy it. There is a nice fountain in the centre of the village.

This descent has a very bumpy road surface, so that my bike computer mount broke. Luckily I had the safety line attached. The scenery, however, is very attractive and remote.

Very pretty, typically French village square! I went there in the evening, I would have loved to stop there but the clocks are running out :( I'll come back.

Typical Pyrenees: super beautiful and quite strenuous

It is one of the toughest Pyrenean passes and, in general, little known by the average amateur because it has been used very little in professional cycling races. It is a spectacular port on both sides. The eastern slope, which is the one marked in this section, is completely open, with hardly any vegetation, with a wide road in perfect condition. It is 9 km from the moment you get off the town of Larrau. The first 4 km are irregular, with some ramps that take your hiccups away. The last ones are literally very hard, with an average of 3 km at 12%!!!! The last km eases up a bit because it has a rest... but it also has important ramps. In addition to being tough, this port is spectacular for its landscapes and panoramic views. You can not lose this!!!!

Dangerous descent due to its steep ramps and long straights. It picks up a lot of speed and there are curves that require strong braking. On hot days you have to be even more careful because I have seen several blowouts due to the heat of the brakes.

Or “Bagargui” in its French version. A pass which constitutes a real challenge for any cyclist, because it is classified among the harshest in France, especially when the heat gets involved. The climb begins calmly with a normal slope during which you must take advantage of the opportunity to turn your legs and find your rhythm. Because the big piece soon arrives on the first bends with 5 km of extreme difficulty. Averages of 9.5 then 12, 13, 12.5 and 11% follow one another without any respite. But at the end of the effort you will finally be able to enjoy a magnificent panorama of the ridges and perhaps admire the flight of migratory birds or vultures.

Beautiful village which exudes Basque soul with its pediment next to the church. Note, a very cool fountain on one of the town squares which can save your day before facing the port of Larrau or the Bagargi. There is also another small fountain with a tap in the stone wall along the main road.

We are at the entrance to the Irati beech forest on the French side, near the Chalet Pedro d'Irati. Nearby there are a couple of very small lakes surrounded by beech forests that are worth visiting.

The town of Larrau is located on a mountainside with views over the two separating valleys. If you need water, there is a beautiful fountain with water inside the town. It is worth stopping to get water before facing the 11 km that remain to the port of Larrau.

Built downstream of the Kakuetta gorges, this hydroelectric dam has formed a magnificent turquoise blue water retention. If you stop there, and if you are not afraid of heights, you can go to the footbridge which faces the dam and overlooks the slope with the river which then continues its course at the bottom of the fault.

This climb was featured in stage 14 of the 2023 Vuelta a España, 11 km long, some 1000 meter climbing, with stunning views on the way
