Jednodniowa wycieczka rowerowa z Laruns do Arette

Get ready for a classic ride through the beautiful Pyrenean foothills! Starting in Laruns, a charming village known as a gateway to iconic climbs like the Col d’Aubisque, you'll roll northward through quiet mountain roads and pastoral valleys. The route to Arette covers just over 64 km—enough for a solid day out—climbing nearly 940 meters and descending even more, so expect some speedy sections after the hard work is done.

Surface-wise, it's mostly smooth asphalt and paved roads, with the occasional stretch of gravel or rural track to keep things spicy (so a sturdy road or gravel bike is best). The roads are pretty quiet, ideal for soaking up the scenery, from pine forests to open agricultural land.

Arriving in Arette, a small Béarnaise town famous for its local cheese and welcoming atmosphere, you definitely deserve a spot at a café. Enjoy this slice of southwestern France—the climbs, the views, and maybe even a taste of Ossau-Iraty at the end!
