Petrilare (Forêt d'Iraty)

Loop, Cycling

Nice route that allows to have beautiful views on the basque mountains and peak Orhi. The climb on asphalt is very quickly forgotten by the great landscapes crossed. Just then to slide into the forest on large tracks very pleasant. In Bouricleta (electric bike), it really is luxury!
