Aste-Béon is a French commune in the Pyrénées-Atlantiques department in the Aquitaine region of south-western France. The inhabitants of the commune are known as ''Astois et Béonais'' or ''Astoises et Béonaises''.〔(Inhabitants of Pyrénées-Atlantiques ) 〕 ==Geography== Aste-Béon is located in the heart of the Ossau Valley some 33 km south-east of Oloron-Sainte-Marie and 7 km north of Laruns. Access to the commune is by road D240 from Castet in the north passing south down the valley in the west of the commune through the village and continuing to Béost in the south. The D290 connects the village of Béon in the north-east to the D934 road which runs from north to south parallel to the commune's western border. Most of the commune is rugged mountains with substantial forests except for a narrow strip down the western side of the commune in the Ossau Valley where there is farmland.〔(Google Maps )〕 The Gave d'Ossau forms most of the western border of the commune as it flows north down the Ossau Valley eventually joining the Gave d'Aspe at Oloron-Sainte-Marie. The ''Lamay'' river rises in the east of the commune and flows west to join the Gave d'Ossau just south of the village. The ''Arrigast'' flows into the Gave d'Ossau from the left bank forming the northern border of the commune on that side of the river.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Aste-Béon」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
