Itinerary

Mainly on shared lanes and slightly undulating.  Cycle lane works underway.  Caution with the traffic when going into Biarritz and St Jean-de-Luz on roads.  There is a calmer feel between Bidart and Ste Barbe where the route brushes past residential areas.

Connection

No hills on the way to St-Jean-de-Luz station, but do take care at the roundabout.
