생장피드포르 최고의 사이클링 경로

이랏티 호수 (Lac d'Iraty), 평화로운 산악 저수지. 상징적인 바스크 산맥 중심부에 자리한 이랏티 호수(Lac d'Iraty)는 이랏티 숲의 광활한 너도밤나무 숲으로 둘러싸인 고요한 저수지입니다. 잔잔하고 맑은 물은 구불구불한 녹색 언덕을 비추며 주변 트레일에서 가장 그림 같은 장소 중 하나입니다.

Very nice except it is mainly road

The route continues uphill to the top of the Ibaneta Pass

Pretty little lake located in the forest, at the edge of the road.

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.

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.

One of the most inhospitable and spectacular mountain passes in the eastern Pyrenees, with several slopes, all of them very difficult. The landscape is wild and wonderful. You can breathe absolute tranquility and you can dedicate yourself exclusively to enjoying the views, the horses, the sheep, the cows and the suffering on the bike. The summit is on the border with Spain, although there is no road that crosses the border, so the pass runs entirely in France. I have climbed it on 2 of its slopes. The first time I climbed it on the slope that crosses the Col d'Orgambide, on the D428 road, which starts from Estérençuby. The first 3 km are very easy, until you cross the detour to go up to Artaburu, where the road begins to have slopes of more than 10%. From there, to the summit, the climb is very hard, around 9%, on a very rough and bumpy road, with a lot of humidity and crossing a wonderful beech forest. Once you reach the top of the Col d'Orgambide, you turn right and continue climbing for another half kilometre with a gradient of 11%. There comes a small descent, to face the last 3 kms, the first 2 very hard with several 13% gradients. The last kilometre is very easy and has panoramic views that are simply wonderful. The second time I climbed it on the side that starts from Arneguy and Ondarolle. This side is harder than the previous one, with a central section that is hellish, being 6 kms at an average of 10%, and a very hard km at 12% and 18% gradients!!! The final part is more gentle. You cross the Croix de Thibault in the penultimate kilometre of the climb. The final kilometre is very gentle and with beautiful and exciting panoramic views.

마법 같은 곳, 제가 가장 좋아하는 프랑스 마을 중 하나입니다.
