In the News (Fri 17 Feb 12)

  
  123VOYAGE South West France: Larrau
Larrau is a pretty village high up in the mountains in the Pays Basque near the Pic d'Orhi one of the highest mountains in this fiercely independent region.
To the south a road meanders over the mountains to the Port de Larrau and thence to Spain, following one of the many smaller routes once used by the pilgrims going to St Jacques de Compostelle.
Larrau is close to the Grand Randonér (GR) no 10; there are also a number of hiking routes into the mountains where you constantly get wonderful views, including one to the Pic d'Orhi which dominates this area.

LARRAU (LARRAÑE) The first thing you notice coming into LARRAU from the west is how different the architecture is. In contrast to the gaily painted facades and tiled roofs of Labourd and Basse Navarre, the houses here are grey and stuccoed, with steep-pitched slate roofs to shed heavy snow.
There is one campsite in Larrau, the Ixtila (tel 05.59.28.63.09; closed mid-Nov to March), and a gîte d'étape - with restaurant - 3km away at LOGIBAR (tel 05.59.28.61.14; closed Dec-Feb), close to the mouth of the Gorges d'Holzarte.
This gorge is one of several in the region, cutting deep into northern slopes of the ridge that forms the frontier with Spain.

On the other hand, from where the Col du Soudet begins climbing after 51 kilometers until the end of the descent of the Col de Burdincurutcheta 80 kilometers later, the riders will be on very narrow, tortuous back roads with constant ups and downs.
The Soudet has 15-percent pitches and an average of 7.5 percent for 14 kilometers; the Côte de Larrau averages 10.5 percent for 2.4 kilometers; and the Col de Bagargui, 9.2 percent for 8.8 kilometers.
The final 60 kilometers are not so flat, with several short hills to keep things split up.

When you come into Larrau from the west, you will notice the differences in the architecture.
In contrast to the gaily painted facades and tiled roofs of LAbourd and Basse Navarre, the houses here are grey and stuccoed, with steep-pitched slate roofs to shed heavy snow.
Although Larrau is the biggest place since Saint Jean, is very small and quiet (almost dead out of season).

 Haute Soule, France. Travel guide & tourist information by Hostelbookers.com
There are no shops or proper hotels until you reach Larrau, the only real village in these mountains, though the scattered hamlet of Ste-Engrâce in the east of the district has some facilities.
The Haute Soule is a land of open skies, where griffon vultures turn on the thermals high above countless flocks of sheep (their occasional corpses providing sustenance for the vultures), with three vast gorges to explore.
Although the overall distance from the Nive valley to the Béarn is not very great, the slowness of the roads (there's no public transport) and the GR10 – it's a day-and-a-half minimum from Estérençuby to Larrau – and the grandeur of the scenery seem to magnify it.

 Cayolar Outside Larrau, France | Larrau, France Travel Blog
Cayolars are places where groups of herders take turns caring for each other’s sheep for several days to a week at a time.
We were lucky enough to spend three days with our neighbor Pierre at the cayolar that he shares with some other shepherds, located outside the small French Basque village of Larrau.
The first thing you notice while approaching the cayolar from Aussurucq, a long 40 kilometers up/down and inside-out, is the really rich, building landscapes of the Pyrenees.

The going got tougher, and with such a determination to reach Spanish soil I overlooked food, energy and water.
On a somewhat insignificant minor road climbing towards Puerto de Larrau (the border), I began to run out of water, energy, daylight and a place to stay.
Every half an hour or so this strange bellowing sound came out of the woods from a further distance, which heightened my state of panic.

It was here I thought for myself that I had the answer to why Armstrong was so successful in the Tour – he is a Texan and as such maybe he is used to the rodeo, which I thought cycling on these roads could be compared to.
However, the road up to Col d’ Erroïmendy (1362 m) had the highest average elevation of all the climbs during my trip and averaged 10%.
Well up at Port de Lárrau, I wondered if there ought not be a sign announcing the col and stating its height as usual.
