De Laruns à Gabas

Leaving the wide flat-bottomed valley behind, this second stage of the Chemin d'Ossau takes up the delicate challenge of climbing up a stretch of landscape where the Pyrenean geomorphology has left only steep valleys and deep gorges.

Attention, Following the landslide that occurred in the Commune of Laruns on May 3, 2023, access to the right bank of the Brousset is prohibited.

In fact, this impacts the GR®108A Chemin de Saint-Jacques Voie d?Ossau between the road bridge of Ouradé and the pedestrian bridge that crosses the Brousset.

Leaving behind the wide flat valley, this second stage of the Ossau Way takes up the delicate challenge of climbing a portion of landscape where the Pyrenean geomorphology has left only deep valleys and gorges. The path finally overcomes the difficulties and, by discreet paths under the cover of boxwood, it finds a haven of life in the hamlet of Gabas, famous for its cheese salting rooms.



How to get there

South of Pau, head for Oloron-Sainte-Marie as far as Gan (N134), then for Arudy and Laruns, in the Ossau valley (D934). Drive past Rébénacq, Louvie-Juzon and Bielle, to reach Laruns (parking in town center).
