Pico Perdiguero is a beautiful Pyrenean peak located between Aragon and Haute-Garonne. It serves as a natural border between Spain and France and is one of the most visited peaks by mountain-loving athletes.
There are two hypotheses about the origin of the name of this fabulous peak:
The first, perhaps alluding to the abundance of this species in other times on the slopes, suggests that it comes from the name partridge.
The second, also considered the most probable, points out that it comes from the deer formation, as there are so many stones in this mountain that some say, in an exaggerated way, that the mountain could be completely dismantled and reduced to nothing pulling stone by stone each of which is part of it.

The Perdiguero massif and the peak with the same name are the third highest of the area after Aneto and Posets. You can access it's summit from the Estós Valley in one bug oush or by spending the night in the refuge.
