Route nationale 618
Route nationale 618 or RN 618 was a French national road linking Saint-Jean-de-Luz to Argelès-sur-Mer. En route it crossed many of the famous passes in the Pyrenees, immortalized by the Tour de France; hence its name was the "Route of the Pyrénées". In 1970, the road was down-graded and is now the RD 918 from Saint-Jean-de-Luz to Arreau and the RD 618 from Arreau to Argelès Plage.Itinerary
