The Chemin de fer de la Rhune (French pronunciation: [ʃəmɛ̃ də fɛʁ də la ʁyn]), Petit train de la Rhune ([pəti tʁɛ̃-]) or (in Basque) Larrungo tren ttipia is a metre gauge rack railway in France at the western end of the Pyrenees, in the Basque Country. It links the Col de Saint-Ignace, some 10 km (6.2 mi) to the east of Saint-Jean-de-Luz, to the summit of the La Rhune mountain (Larrun). Although this summit lies on the border between France and Spain, the railway lies entirely within the French département of Pyrénées-Atlantiques.
