A bucolic interval

No two ways about it, today it’s the country!

Direction the Mountain Road with on leaving Saint-Pierre d'Irube the superb viewpoint of Elorrimendi with its spectacular panoramic view over the Pyrenees.

That already takes you on to Hasparren, the city of Oaks, a little town with its steep, picturesque streets lined with old Basque farmhouses.

Saint-Martin d'Arbéroue lies just ahead. Can you resist the temptation of the waterfalls in the caves of Isturitz and Oxocelhaya?

Take time out to stroll around Clairence, a fortified town built in the Navarre in the 14th century, one of the most beautiful villages of France, before spending a few moments of contemplation in the Belloc Abbey amidst the Benedictine monks.

Admire the perspective along the banks of the Adour river at Urcuit and Lahonce and don’t miss the Cross of Mouguerre before coming to the end of the last reel.
