Menditte: Holiday Apartments and Holiday Homes
Arbaila VTT is a 12.5 km-long, very easy mountain bike route suitable for all target groups. The stated travel time is 1 hour 30 minutes, with an elevation difference of 60 m.
The route enters Menditte and runs between the village church and the town hall. In Menditte, it includes a shady section along the banks of the Saison and offers a view of the Madeleine heights. Outside Menditte, it passes the Maison noble Bidabea, which dates back to 1697 and features geometric figures on the door frame, a scallop shell on the wall, and a climbing bear motif. Shortly after the Maison noble Bidabea, the route passes a château associated with the Bertérèche family, one of the oldest families in Soule.

Culture
The parish church of the Assumption of the Virgin Mary stands in the village of Menditte. It was built in the 17th and 18th centuries; the year 1700 is inscribed in the entrance arcade of the portico. A comprehensive restoration took place in 1860. The decorative stained-glass windows were installed at the end of the 19th or beginning of the 20th century and are probably attributed to Auguste Montaut, a glass painter from Oloron.
The year 1672 is engraved above the door of the Sainte-Barbe Chapel. The site of Menditta Castle in Menditte is associated with the Middle Ages and the modern era.
Landscape
The Sainte-Barbe Chapel is located in the heights of Menditte, almost at the same altitude as the Madeleine, and offers views across the Arbailles.
