La Pierre Saint-Martin is the ski resort of the commune of Arette, at the head of the Barétous valley, in the Béarn (Pyrénées-Atlantiques). Sitting right on the Spanish border, it is one of the ski resorts closest to the ocean. Its landscape of lapiaz, limestone plateaus carved by water, hides one of the great cave networks of Europe, famous among cavers.
