This hike through the Oxibar pass offers a very interesting originality: it opens the doors to the karstic massif of Arbailles. The geology gives a particular tone to the landscape, which is at the same time secret, original, with a cultural dimension that draws its sources from protohistory.
After crossing a small forest, the first open slopes offer a very nice view of the "Ibar Esküin" valley, Alcay, Lacarry and the high massifs of Soulet and Béarn. The nature of the soil already tells us about this type of limestone terrain and we arrive at a beautiful promontory where a few piles of stones are piled up: "Maide Korralea", a witness to the ancient history of Soulet
After the Oxibar pass, on the way down, we can admire the old barn with its shingled roof, those old wooden tiles.
