From the hamlet of Cachaou to that of Pascau, the Adour Maritime Greenway offers beautiful views of the river, and in winter you might be lucky enough to catch a glimpse of the majestic flight of the cranes.

Bayonne, known as the “City of Chocolate” in the 19th century and designated a “City of Art and History”, is renowned for its summer festivals, its historic centre  where it is a pleasure to linger along the River Nive, admiring the half-timbered houses and strolling through the narrow streets lined with bars and bogedas.

At the mouth of the Adour, in Anglet, the Pignada Forest offers picnic areas in the shade of tall pine trees.

From Bayonne, EuroVelo 3 and the Vélodyssée follow the same route as far as Irun.
