Col du Pourtalet

Col du Pourtalet is the natural border between France and Spain.

On the French side, it extends into the Ossau valley. On the Spanish side, it extends into the Tena valley. It is a former border crossing, where you can still see a border post. Numerous hiking and cycling trails and circuits allow you to explore it and enjoy breathtaking views of the Pyrenean mountains, and in particular the Pic du Midi d'Ossau.
