Very difficult
Departure from Estaing (Hautes-Pyrénées) (Hautes-Pyrénées)
A circular loop starting from the small Ilhéou refuge, for experienced mountaineers seeking solitude.
Please note: the route is mostly off-track and poorly marked, over very rugged terrain (scree, rocky slopes, snowfields, steep slopes).
Should only be attempted in clear weather.
Extensive panoramic views due to its position set back from the border ridge: Néouvielle, Marboré, Vignemale, Balaïtous...
