    Tips

    The Ibón (mountain lake) Helado de Monte Perdido is located between the summits of Cilindro and Monte Perdido. It is the lake that is at the highest altitude in the Pyrenees, at almost 3000 meters. Being a lake of glacial origin, for a long time it was not known where the water drained to. The use of fluorescein, an orange-colored organic dye, revealed that the water traveled to the great Gavarnie waterfall through two kilometers of underground tunnels.
