Prados de Llosás – Cap de Llauset mountain hut

The route starts at the Cap de Llauset mountain hut and ends at Plan d’Abaixo. This stage takes you over the Col d’Ixalenques, which rises to an altitude of 2,812 metres. You’ll enjoy magnificent panoramic views of the surrounding peaks before beginning a long descent to Plan d’Abaixò, in the heart of a wild and unspoilt landscape.

One of the most beautiful hikes in the area, featuring a lovely, technical circular route that can be challenging at times due to steep gradients. It’s best to follow the suggested route. There are numerous mountain lakes to explore, magnificent landscapes offering varied views of the surrounding mountain ranges, and a brand-new mountain refuge (where you can enjoy a meal or stop for a picnic).

Starting from Fuente de la Pubiya and ending at Prados de Llosás. The first day covers around 10 km with a climb of nearly 1,000 m. A lovely, gradual climb through the heart of the valley, with superb scenery and a finish in a magnificent setting.

A very beautiful hike. There is a tricky 10-metre section at the waterfall, but there is a safety line to help you. The outward journey is a little more difficult than the return journey, but it's worth it. And it's good to do it in this direction. The return route crosses fields.

This is a hike in Besurta that passes by the La Renclusa mountain refuge, the Ibon de Paderna and the Plan d’Aiguallut. It’s a very beautiful walk with lovely mountains, waterfalls and viewpoints. It’s a really enjoyable walk and accessible for young children when properly supervised, but you’ll need to allow much more time than indicated. This route takes you past waterfalls and viewpoints. There’s also a door carved into the rock. The time given for the walk is without breaks. Please stay on the paths and respect the mountain environment.

A short hike starting from Besurta after taking the park bus from L’Hospital. This is followed by an ascent to the refuge, including a circular route to the ibon that very few hikers take. You then need to head back down to the refuge before setting off towards the pass via a steep climb of about 20 minutes. Descend towards Le Plan, enjoying numerous views along the way. Once at Le Plan, head for the waterfall at the back of the cirque for a relaxing break amidst the stunning scenery. Return via Le Plan, where you’re likely to come across far more people. The descent back to the Besurta car park is fairly quick. There’s a very pretty waterfall on the way out of Le Plan.

Park at the free car park in Estos. Follow the GR® as it climbs gradually, passing close to the Embiase and then the Ana hut. Then turn left towards the Batisielles ibonet. We choose to continue towards the upper lakes: a steep and demanding climb to the Gran de Batisielles ibon, followed by a gentler slope to the Aigüeta ibon. Lunch break by the lake after a short scrambling section. Return via the Ibon d’Escarpinosa: a more technical route with numerous scree slopes, where you must follow the cairns closely and remain vigilant, even in the forest. Once in Escarpinosa, we take a circular route to explore the two ibons, where a few locals are swimming in August. The descent alternates between steep slopes and more gentle trails before rejoining the GR®, the perfect way to round off this beautiful, long day.

A very pleasant walk that goes as far as the Batisielles tarns and takes in a section of the path to the Estos mountain hut. The walk passes a small hut – the Santa Ana hut – which is very charming. You can make an initial stop at the Batisielles tarn, where you can take the path leading directly to the pass between the two tarns to avoid the following sections. You can also head to the second ibon, the Aigulla de Batisielles, but this adds an extra 100 metres of elevation gain. You can turn back and take a path to avoid the avalanche couloirs. There is also a very difficult and very long section through the middle of the avalanche couloirs and over rocky ground. The rest of the route through the avalanche couloirs continues to feature dangerous sections. To see the paths more clearly, switch the map to OSM Rando. Please stay on the paths and respect the mountain environment.
