March 9, 2026,En Béarn. Bielle, plateau du Benou.

The Benou plateau is located near the Marie-Blanque pass, on the Ossau valley side. Its peaceful and gentle appearance, which offers beautiful views of the surrounding area from its elevated position, should not obscure the difficulties of life and the hard work of the local farmers.
