La boucle du piémont ossalois à vélo
This panoramic circuit develops at the gateway to the Ossau valley and visits villages with a remarkable architectural and historical heritage. If you're feeling sporty, you can look forward to an invigorating loop, as the climbs follow one another from one side of the ancient moraines to the other, and visit several valleys.
This panoramic loop at the gateway to the Ossau valley has all the ingredients for a complete tour. From a heritage point of view, several villages will be visited on this land occupied by man since the dawn of time, criss-crossed by ancestral roads and nourished by the healing waters of the Gave d'Ossau. Typical Béarn houses, manor houses, castles, churches, dolmens, wash-houses and viewpoints follow one another as you explore the villages and hamlets. So many invitations to pause and observe.
If you're a sporty type, you're in for an invigorating loop, as the trail weaves its way from one valley to the next in search of new discoveries: it climbs ancient moraines, and here and there scours promising back roads. The climbs are one after the other, but the ever-changing scenery will soon make you forget how demanding some of the bumps can be.
