Pigeon hunting

Pigeon hunting, which has existed since time immemorial, is considered to be one of the finest forms of hunting using nets on the Pyrenean summits. The location of the nets create a true funnel for pigeons on migration routes.<
King Henry IV was known to have come with his minister Sully.
One is located to the west of Pic Saiberri, between the latter and the Pic d'Ibanteli, the other is 1 km to the north west on the route from Sare to Etxalar.
