Portella Blanca is a mountain pass located 2,514 meters high. It is located between the peaks of Negre d'Envalira and Tosseta de l'Esquella, right on the border with Andorra and France. From the col there are fantastic views of the great peaks and bare slopes typical of such altitudes.

Beyond the Horizon

October 3, 2023

On the edge of the border between Andorra and France rises the Portella Blanca, a majestic mountain pass at an altitude of 2,514 metres. Surrounded by the proud peaks of Negre d'Envalira and Tosseta de l'Esquella, it offers hikers a panorama that is hard to beat in its grandeur.

From up here, the mighty peaks and bare slopes look like a painting that shows the pure power and untouched nature. The silence up here is almost tangible, broken only by the gentle whisper of the wind and the distant murmur of hidden mountain streams. The sunlight breaks off the rock structures and lets the scenery shine in a constant play of light and shadow.

With every breath, the air tastes a little clearer, a little colder. It is as if the mountains are sharing their secrets with you as you look out over the boundless expanses and let yourself be enchanted by the magic of this place. A place where heaven and earth seem to touch and you feel a little closer to the infinite horizon.
