Discover ETABLISSEMENTS MAFSA in Laruns, Pyrénées Atlantiques

Climbing the Col d'Aubisque by bike is an unmissable experience in the Ossau valley. With its ribbon of asphalt winding its way out of the deep wooded valleys and onto the inviting high mountain pastures, the Aubisque is an emblematic Pyrenean pass. Electrically-assisted bikes offer the opportunity for any occasional sportsman, properly equipped and helmeted, to try the adventure of climbing one of the most dreaded passes in the Tour de France. With effort no longer an alienating factor, you'll have plenty of time to coax the wild beast by enjoying the shade of the hundred-year-old trees on the road to Eaux-Bonnes, to observe the basins and waterfalls of Le Valentin, to follow the gaze of flocks of sheep grazing in single file on the summit slopes. Effort management and discovery go hand in hand on the road to Gourette.

A border crossing between the Ossau valley and Spain, the Col du Pourtalet is reached by a fairly long but never steep route, crossing a wide variety of landscapes. As well as being a physical challenge, albeit mitigated by the use of electric assistance, climbing it by bike also allows you to immerse yourself in the heritage and historical dimension of the route. A communication route since the dawn of time, the Pourtalet route has seen the passage of merchants and peddlers, smugglers and pilgrims. Every year, the Gabas valley also plays host to the lively transhumance of flocks and herds to the bountiful summer pastures of the Pic du Midi d'Ossau. If, on leaving Laruns, the road boldly defies the Hourat gorges, it then makes a long, easy approach between the Gave and the boxwoods, passing through the Eaux-Chaudes spa and the cheese-salting village of Gabas.

Moving from one valley to the next is today?s program. After a gentle warm-up at the bottom of the valley, you'll make your way up the long, hard climb to the Col de Lansatté. This is where you leave the Vallée d'Ossau for the Vallée d'Aspe, and begin a beautiful descent. No shapé turns here. Only old paths and tracks, shaped by generations of shepherds with their sheep and cows on transhumance. The Chemin des Jauspins, which brings the stage to a close, is sure to make you forget your efforts of the day.

Discovering the villages of Ossal on a very easy route with no difficulties, on little used tarmac roads on the right bank, with more tracks on the left bank.

If you love wild mountains and the feeling of being away from it all, this magnificent variant on the tour of the Ossau valley is for you. It is aimed at experienced hikers who enjoy routes where orientation and reading the terrain go hand in hand with walking.

An attractive route that winds its way between villages and grand districts, offering exceptional views of the valley and surrounding peaks. The route, on tracks and main roads, presents no particular difficulties apart from its length and steepness.

What will you remember from your stroll in the circus of Anéou? Maybe that mysterious river coming out of a cave that you'll see on the way down? Or your encounters with wild animals, isards or marmots, who know they are safe in the heart of the National Park?

The next day, Renardo returned to wander around the Hunchback Men's Den. Surprise! there was already another young fox there. They sniffed and liked each other. His new friend, pointing to a wide passage on the right side of the Great Wall, asked him "do you want to go and see the Scheeeeeeeeeee?" and without even waiting for his answer, he led him on the path which passed in front of the Small Den, then went down towards the water-which-doesn't-crawl and then went up a few steps* to enter the Great Rockfall.

There is nothing better for those who like to climb in the cooler weather than this hike, which begins in a beautiful beech-fir forest. On the outskirts of the hut, the landscape covered with high altitude pastures changes the atmosphere completely, offering a pastoral setting where the bells of cows, horses and sheep ring out.

The Lurien valley and its lake are among the rare privileged places that have kept the wild character of the Ossau mountains. The steep path in the forest dissuades walkers and leaves this mountain to hikers. It is thus with the steps of the mountaineer that it is necessary to go up this small valley which becomes increasingly narrow and sinuous with the progression.
