The Ossau Valley offers an ideal playground in the Pyrenees for outdoor sports. Its natural setting, shaped by an intense pastoral activity, offers a multitude of spots, adapted to all levels of practice for hikers, bikers and runners. The Ossau Valley has everything to impress you, whether you come as a family or with sporting friends!

Due to works to improve the safety of the drinking water network, the GR108A (now the GRT19) is closed on the approach to Fabrèges. To avoid using the road, we strongly advise walkers to take bus route 525 (operating in July–August and during the winter) between Gabas and Fabrèges. To this end, the local council has put up signs both before and after the closure. The works are expected to last until 2027.
