    The largest beech forest in Europe, the Iraty forest is one of the jewels of the Basque Country. Its 20,000 hectares are divided between France and Spain and bring together many remarkable plant and animal species: beeches, firs, deer, roe deer, etc.

    We are at the entrance to the Irati beech forest on the French side, near the Chalet Pedro d'Irati. Nearby there are a couple of very small lakes surrounded by beech forests that are worth visiting.
