Itxassou

Highlight • Restaurant

Itxassou is a pretty little village in the heart of the Basque Country. Crossed by the Nive, Itxassou has typical Basque architecture. The village partly owes its reputation to Itxassou cherries. Also worth discovering is the Rabbit Forest, a space dedicated to dozens of species of rabbit. You will find many restaurants there which offer local gastronomy.
