Basque traditions
Inspired by ancient rural practices, the Force Basque, is a competition between villages. Its main events include: tug-of-war, stone lifting, handcart lifting, sack race, throwing bales of straw, tree trunk cutting, "transport de bidons" (or "who can carry 41 kilos in each hand the furthest?"). Come and see the teams confronting each other. Pelota is one of the oldest Basque games. Every village has its pelota wall or a "trinquet" where young and old play their favourite sport.
Authentic cuisine using local produce
The Basque Region is famous for its wide range of renowned products: sheep's cheese, Espelette peppers, Basque cake and the famous Bayonne ham. Taste the famous "piperade", a fondue with sweet green peppers, served with scrambled eggs, or the cod-stuffed peppers.
