Be aware if you follow the last posters advice and go via Pau you will go through the Somport tunnel, the road to the tunnel on the Spanish side is good but after the tunnel the French side is not very clever its steep and narrow in places.

Yes this is the route we are hoping to avoid as OH was a nervous wreck after passing through it last year!! Van lenght is 6.2 metres

The straight forward route is through the Somport tunnel to Pau.
We take it four times a year and it's my favourite part of the journey. Sure the French side is a bit winding but it is so beautiful it's worth it. The road is constantly being improved and the satnav sometimes wants you to go through the villages that have been by-passed but you can ignore that.
We fill up with diesel at the Lidl in Jaca (visible from the N330) and overnight at the free aire in Olorone-sainte-Marie.
You can take the A136 from Sabinanigo over the mountain, which we keep intending to do but haven't yet. There are several aires on the French side before Pau.

I can never seem to find this aire.. Any chance you could do a review and pin point it in the campsite database ??

Tonka, here are the co-ords: Latitude : (Nord) 43.18403° Décimaux ou 43° 11′ 2.508′′
Longitude : (Ouest) -0.60878° Décimaux ou -0° 36′ 31.608′′ .
You can look it up on www.campingcar-infos.com - 'chercher/ajouter une aire - dept 64 - Olorone Sainte Marie.
I tried copying the direct link but you can't.
It's a bit difficult to get to as the town is a bit illogical!
Coming from the south it's not too difficult as you just follow the N134 through Bidos and on into Olorone and it's on your right (you need to swing wide to get in - I put my warning light on otherwise people behind wonder why you are indicating right and sort of turning left!)
Mike
