A short, easy Sunday hike (500 m elevation gain) leading to Pic de Razels (1,600 m) with a magnificent 360° view. After a winding climb, you reach the ridge, which you follow to the left through a pretty wood to the peak. Lovely views all along the way.

A beautiful hike with lovely views of the town of Foix and its castle, as well as the Pyrenees mountain range.
A very quiet hike, with unspoilt nature, shaded sections in the forest and sections exposed to the sun.

This is a beautiful hike accessible from the Col de Port, offering magnificent views of the Pyrenees mountain range, from Saint-Barthélémy in the east to Mont Valier and beyond in the west. After a fairly short climb to Pic d'Estibat, the hardest part is over, as the rest of the route continues in a circular fashion along a beautiful ridge before descending through woods and returning on the north side via a pretty valley past the Estibat hut.
Please take note of the comments in the practical information section.

The first day takes you to the Refuge de Bassiès, passing huts, a valley, mountain passes, an old mine, a pond, and various cols and mountain passes. The stretch from the Col de las Fouzès to the Port de Bassiès is particularly beautiful.The route follows paths and tracks that are difficult due to their terrain (rock, scree, unmarked).See practical information * From (3) to (6) an unmarked path with gradients of 15% and 25%, with the presence of Patou dogs from (4). From (12) to (18) a marked path with gradients of 16% to 30%.The GPX track is necessary in places to avoid any confusion, as the route does not necessarily follow GR®, GRP® or PR® trails.Allow around 6 hours for the walk.

Departure from Auzat (Ariège)
Before heading back, there is the option of a return trip to the Étang de Bassiès from the refuge, leaving some of your luggage at the refuge.A fairly short second stage, with two steep ascents (19% to 38%): one from the Refuge de Bassiès to the Port de Bassiès, and the even more challenging one from the Port de Saleix to the Pic de Girantès or Mont Ceint. In fact, it is a rather gruelling, up-and-down stage, classified as difficult. The ascents and descents are on challenging trails (pebbles, rocks, scree). The whole day is spent in open country with stunning panoramic views. The route passes the beautiful Étang d’Alate.The relative altitude, between 1,520 m and 2,100 m, means this day’s walk is feasible even in the height of summer.
