Ibañeta Pass

Highlight • Mountain Pass

At the Ibañeta Pass (1057 meters above sea level) it ends the steep slope that from the French town of Saint Jean Pied de Port crosses the Spanish border and the Pyrenees, for the first leg of the Camino Francés to Santiago de Compostela.
At Arneguy, it begins a foot-path that climbs in the woods: as it is quite bumpy and challenging, in case of bad weather it is advisable to choose the route for bicycle, on asphalt.
After the pass, sloping down for nearly 2 kilometres, there is the village of Roncesvalles.

Ibañeta Pass and the Roland Monument

Highlight • Mountain Pass

In the 11th century, the monastery of San Salvador is said to have stood here at the top of the pass, on the foundations of which a small chapel was built in the 1960s. A little further up the hill is the Roland Monument, which commemorates the Battle of Roncesvalles by the Basques against the French army under Charlemagne on August 15, 778. Above all, the panoramic view from up there is really breathtakingly beautiful!
