If you are not afraid of accumulating kilometers and elevation changes (or if the pleasure is precisely linked to the challenge), this itinerary is the natural extension of the Orbaitzeta and Irabia loop. Once you have tasted the exhilaration of a trip to our Spanish Basque neighbors, you can't bring yourself to return home too quickly, and the softness of the shaded trails of the Irati forest encourages you to prolong the party. Still on a gravel bike or electrically assisted VTC, we ride along the entire Irabia lake and the banks of the Irati river under the foliage of the largest beech forest in Europe. Like an improbable caravanserai, the Casas de Irati and its inn offer a welcome break at midday to recharge the batteries of the rider and the EAB.
