Ahargo

Mount Ahargo rises to an elevation of 609 meters in the French Pyrenees, with a prominence of 234 meters above the surrounding landscape of Pyrénées-Atlantiques.

The summit has served as a geographical reference point for local communities in the French Basque Country throughout generations of mountain dwellers and travelers.

The annual Ahargo Lasterkaz trail running event brings together athletes who climb the mountain paths through the traditional Soule province territory.

The yellow-marked trail starts from Barcus village parking lot and requires a three-hour round trip to reach the summit at 609 meters elevation.

Three distinct markers occupy the summit: an IGN geodesic point, a cross, and an orientation table that identifies the surrounding peaks of the Pyrenees.
