Saint-Palais, à la croisée des chemins

Loop, Cycling

It is not uncommon to meet a good number of pilgrims on their way to Santiago de Compostela on the heights of Saint-Palais. At the crossroads of the three main French routes, the ancient capital of Navarre has always seen travellers, traders, farmers and other conquerors pass through. The surrounding hilltop villages offer a beautiful array of Basque architecture as well as unmissable views of the Pyrenees. A visit to the castle of Camou is an opportunity to travel back in time before finishing a rich and varied circuit on the old railway transformed into a greenway. Once the bike has been put away, a walk along the banks of the Bidouze and through the streets of the town centre brings this immersion in Lower Navarre to a close in the best conditions.
