We are in the heart of the Ossau Valley, the kingdom of hiking. It is an activity accessible to all of us, but whether you are a beginner or an experienced hiker, it is important to adapt your route to your level. Depending on your wishes, we can suggest an outing. From Piedmont to the summit of the Pic du Midi d'Ossau, everyone will find what they are looking for to unwind in the wilderness.
The Vallée d'Ossau is a preserved valley that has kept its traditions: pastoralism and transhumance, songs and dances ossaloises. Here nature is respected and offers us a rich panel both flora and fauna face the majesty of the Pic du Midi d'Ossau dit Jean-Pierre. The shepherds perpetuate transhumance to offer us an authentic cheese rich in taste. The animals always carry their cowbell so that the shepherd can find them. The bells are still made in Bearn and can be bought as souvenirs. In the Ossau Valley, you can see the Bearded Vulture, the Tawny Vulture, the Marmot, the Isard and maybe ... the Bear.
La Vallée d'Ossau est une vallée qui a su préserver sa vie pastorale.
Le fromage de Brebis
La traite, c'est surtout des gestes quotidiens que l'on fait pour fabriquer les fromages. Ces fromages sont de véritables fruits de la passion qui, tenus par les mains du berger, sortent du chaudron comme une naissance et portent en eux toutes les saveurs et les caprices de la montagne...
La traite des brebis
Fin décembre, vient le temps de vendre les premiers agneaux pour les fêtes de fin d'année et de sevrer les agnelles que l'on garde pour le renouvellement du troupeau. C'est la saison de la traite des brebis qui commence pour s'achever huit mois plus tard dans la montagne. Peu nombreuses au début, les brebis à traire augmentent au fil de la saison et de la vente echelonnée des agneaux.
Le chien de berger
Conduire et garder un troupeau de brebis dans la montagne est totalement impossible sans chien. Un berger sans chien est vraiment comme un roi nu, totalement impuissant et incapable de manoeuvrer un troupeau. Le chien est un compagnon indispensable
La naissance des agneaux
A la fin de l'automne, les brebis rentrent en bergerie pour manger du regain, des céréales, et dormir dans la chaleur. Leur ventre s'arrondissent, les pis se gonflent démesurément, pleins de promesses. Il faut bouger le troupeau avec précaution, ne pas faire courir ou épuiser les bêtes en de longues marches : le temps des agnelages approche. La douceur doit être le maître mot de la conduite et de l'ambiance du troupeau.
