    • Come and discover the emblematic sport of the Basque country!

      Nicolas, elite bare-handed champion and sports instructor, will introduce you to the three most well-known specialities of Basque pelota:

      • The bare hand
      • The pala
      • The chistera


      He will start by explaining the different specialties as well as the design of the equipment used (chistera, balls, etc.). After seeing the rules of the game, you will be immersed in the skin of a pelotari with workshops and fun games. All this in joy and good humor. Nicolas will make you discover exceptional and atypical trinquets (place where pelota is played indoors).
