Ostabat-Asme

Ostabat-Asme is a village in Pyrénées-Atlantiques.

Understand

Ostabat-Asme is a starting or meeting point for the traditional Way of St. James, a route for pilgrims to Santiago de Compostela.

Get in

By foot

Some of the routes to Santiago de Compostela join here: one comes from Paris via Tours, Poitiers and Bordeaux, one from the valley of the Rhone via Le Puy-en-Velay (this is the GR 65 route).

The last 22 km of the route from Le Puy-en-Velay (Chemin du Puy), from Aroue, is part of the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Routes of Santiago de Compostela in France.

Get around

The village is tiny. Get around on foot, as pilgrims have for centuries.

Go next

Saint-Jean-Pied-de-Port, the last French town on the French Way to Santiago de Compostela.
