Santa Barbara

Loop, Walking

The hike on the hill of Sainte-Barbe, is first of all an incomparable point of view on the valley of the Nivelle and the Basque coast. From the Sainte-Barbe cross to the Sainte-Barbe point, as you can easily recognize the bay of Saint-Jean-de-Luz and the Socoa fort, the view of the coastline stretching to Anglet. On the mountain side, Jaizkibel, peñas de Haya, la Rhune, Atxuria, Alcurrunz, Artzamendi, Mondarrain, Baigura... The tour of the horizon is complete. With your eyes conquered and your camera saturated, you will then go to meet the wild valley of the Uzkain river, without road access between Ascain and Saint-Pée-sur-Nivelle. A haven of peace where you can enjoy the freshness of the stream, the songs of birds under the foliage, and observe oaks and plane trees with enigmatic shapes, the trognes.
