Your Pays Basque

Red, green and white rule the countryside where the Ocean and the Pyrenees dominate as eternal masters.
The four seasons can succeed each other in a single day! Genuine traditions and a sense of festival have endured across the centuries. A region where nature is large, creating well-being and harmony, where you can connect with and feel the intensity of your emotions.
Golf, surf, hiking on foot or horse, white water sports... and pelote basque! The 'fronton' still has its place in every town and village.
