gorges of OLHADO AND HOLZARTÉ.

Once out of the village you walk along a wide unpaved road through mainly forest. When you come out of the forest you get a beautiful view of the Olhado gorge and the Holzarté gorge. A little further you arrive at the Uztarbia farm. After a short climb you continue walking along a small path through a beautiful open landscape. You will pass the Croix de Madeleine that was placed in 1886. The inhabitants of Larrau went in procession to the cross to beg for rain. After a small Col there is a steep descent. The route continues past old barns to return to Larrau along the most beautiful part of the walk.
