		The 900-metre cone of La Rhune, straddling the frontier with Spain, is the last skyward thrust of the Pyrenees before they decline into the Atlantic.
		As the landmark of Labourd, in spite of its unsightly TV mast, and duly equipped with a rack-and-pinion rail service, it is predictably popular as a vantage point, offering fine vistas way up the Basque coast and east to the rising Pyrenees.
