The Pas de Roland is a gorge dug by the Nive on the outskirts of Itxassou en Labourd. Located at the bottom of the gorge, the path runs along beautiful cliffs in a remarkable mineral setting. The road follows the river, in the Basque hinterland in a pleasant and bucolic atmosphere.

August 17, 2022,Circuit du Pas de Roland par le col d'Atthari depuis le parking Ateka d'Itxassou.

Nice hike with 2 very small gaps (The gps signal was asleep!)
There are lovely views.
On the other hand, a few more pedestrian and unpaved paths would have given this Basque circuit more charm.
