エルポンデバーのおすすめウォーキング＆ハイキングルート

One of the most magical places in the eastern Pyrenees, surrounded by alpine meadows, fir trees, and the two lakes that give it its name. At almost 2,350 meters above sea level, the refuge offers food, accommodation, and postcard-perfect views. It's a gateway to the Perafita pass and the cross-border routes with Andorra. By mountain bike, the climb from Cap del Rec is demanding but spectacular: a wide track, rocky sections, and sustained gradients. The best approach is to take it easy, maintain a steady cadence, and savor the final reward: the reflection of the mountains in the lakes, with the sound of the wind and cows as your only companions.

Mountain refuge a little higher on our route.

Lake below de la Pera, a good place to stop to take a breath of the ascent and enjoy its views, before reaching the Refuge higher up.

Shelter at the highest point of the route. Nice views and a magnificent terrace to have a drink.

Beautiful place after a good climb. Last push to get to the refuge.

Food and drink service, toilet, hot water shower (1), blankets, biomass and wood stove. Pets are not allowed inside the shelter.
