The official gastronomic selection

A whole day given over to Basque specialities sounds tempting, doesn’t it?

Start with Itxassou, a typical little village known for its production of cherries and derivative products.

Continue on to Saint-Etienne de Baigorry, a frontier village of great character in the Navarre, nestled at the foot of the Baigura mountain, to taste the powerful, generous wines of the Irouléguy cellars.

The next stop is Banca, to visit the artisanal trout farm which benefits from the pure water of the Arpea spring.

Finally, call at Les Aldudes in the establishment of Pierre Oteiza who, along with a few farmers from the valley of Les Aldudes, has saved the piebald pig breed.

These pigs, raised amidst the oak, chestnut and beech trees, produce the famous Aldudes ham.
