Louvie-Juzon

Highlight • Other

Louvie-Juzon is located at the gates of the magnificent Ossau valley. This charming little village is the ideal starting point for many mountain passes. From here the Marie-Blanque pass is very close, while you will have to pedal a little more to find the mythical Aubisque and Soulor passes.
