For those who love the Pyrenees, climbing the Abodi mountain range from Orbaizeta and starting to see the picarrachos of the Pyrenees and the natural border created by the trees of the Irati Forest is an incredible image. I liked this area so much that I finished the stage and signed up for the Iraty Xtrm.
