Larrun is a notable tourist destination in France, especially since 1924, thanks to the Petit train de La Rhune (little train of Larrun), a rack railway that leaves from the Saint Ignace pass.
The panorama offers an unobstructed view over the surrounding territories of Basse Navarre, Navarre and Guipuzcoa, the Basque Coast on the shores of the Cantabrian Sea from San Sebastian to the mouth of the river Adour, reaching as far as the Landes and the Atlantic Ocean.
