Hendaye offers us a superb, entirely exclusive route accessible to all. It leaves from the port of Caneta and, thanks to a pontoon on stilts, reaches the Joncaux district by following the right bank of the Bidassoa.

In the distance, the first peaks of the Pyrenees can be seen.

If the Hendaye train station is synonymous with the end of the world for some travelers, it will be for you the starting point of an unforgettable bike ride. A reverie on two wheels along the water, started in the company of the Bidasoa River. Before joining the Atlantic Ocean, this river, which has been a border river since 1659, takes its ease in the bay of Chingoudy, a navigation haven shared by Hondarribia the Spanish and Hendaye the French. You can ride with your family in complete peace of mind on the daring balcony over the bay, allowing you to be constantly free of car traffic.

In the heart of a very touristic coast, the Domaine d'Abbadia remains a magnificent space of protected nature that you can discover, but only on foot and without your dog.

Ideal for families, pushchairs, small bicycles and wheelchairs. This walk in Hendaye runs along the right bank of the Bidasoa, which forms the border between France and Spain. The island of the Pheasants is the link. This relaxing and well laid out route also runs alongside the Joncaux industrial estate. From the shore you can see the Plaiaundi ecological park, Irun and the Pyrenees.
