Activity description

Start your day in the best possible way by taking a guided hike to admire the sunrise over the mountains of the Basque Country!

This 3-hour sunrise hike near Saint-Jean-de-Luz has it all! First of all, there is no fixed itinerary, which leaves you the possibility of choosing a hike adapted to your level with your guide. Secondly, the morning hike is perfect to enjoy the trails when they are quietest and least crowded. Finally, the icing on the cake is that you can enjoy a good sweet or savoury breakfast, while admiring the sunrise over the Basque mountains!

Join Laëtitia, your professional guide and Basque Country specialist. After years of exploring this incredible playground, she's now looking forward to sharing her expertise with you. A qualified sports educator, she'll be able to advise you on this early morning hike.

There are two possible hikes for this activity, depending on your level. Whichever hike you choose, you'll meet up with Laëtitia in Ahetze, from where your transfer to the start of your chosen hike will begin. The hike begins in the dark, so you'll need a headlamp. Then, once you've reached the summit, the view will take your breath away! You'll see that waking up early is well worth it!

So what are you waiting for? Book your guided hike and head for Ahetze to discover the mountains and landscapes of the Basque country at sunrise!

Une ascension de l'Alburruntz entre couché de lune et levé de soleil, une belle balade au aurore, des couleurs et des lumières qui se réveillent le long du parcours et une vue imprenable sur les Pyrénées. A faire absolument !

Très satisfait de cette balade, l'arrivée au sommet avec le lever du soleil est magique et nous fait oublier le réveil très matinal !
