A protected site, La Rhune is the most famous mountain in the Basque Country region.
It is a real border post with Spain. It is not very high compared to the Pic du Midi de Bigorre or Mont Blanc, however, at its summit, you have a 360° view of the French and Spanish coasts across the Pyrenees.
The Rhune small train, built in 1924 and perfectly maintained, takes you to an altitude of more than 905 meters.
On board the little rack train of the Rhune, it is thirty-five minutes of climbing to reach the summit, where you have a breathtaking view.
From the top of the Rhune, you have a view of the Basque Country, the ocean, the Landes and the Pyrenees!
Also take advantage of the ascent to discover some sheep and pottocks that are small horses from the Basque Country.
Small ventas, located on the panoramic terrace, offer you food, drinks and souvenirs.
In the history of the Basque cake, the addition of pastry cream dates back to the early 20th century. Originally, the cake had no filling. It’s simply a delicious blend of crispness and sweetness. The sobriety of the shape of the Basque cake and the elegance of its colour, the contrast of these textures are a gastronomic invitation. When cut, the pleasure of the eyes operates before exalting the taste buds. Many tourists go to Sare on a campsite trip to taste the real Basque cake.
