Don't be fooled by the name, the only thing left of the Hostal is its name. However, it serves as a reference point. From here you can take the route to Albanyá, to Bassegoda or to France (Vilarouge and St Llorenç de Cerdans)

The linguistic proximity of the "Pont Eiffel", which spans the valley here, and the low mountain range "Eifel" in the far west of Germany is no coincidence: The family of the designer - whose world-famous Tower of Paris (named after its builder) is probably known to everyone - has German roots. The ancestors of the Eiffel Tower builder Gustave EIFFEL come from the Eifel town of Marmagen (in the Euskirchen district, North Rhine-Westphalia). The village square there - if you are interested, see the following hiking highlight https://www.komoot.com/de-de/highlight/1830307 - is named after him.

Old railway line along the Tech with a magnificent panorama of the Pyrenees.

The panel shows a graphic representation of the landscape seen from that point. It includes important geographical references, such as mountains, towns, rivers or coastal areas, allowing visitors to identify the locations they are seeing in the distance.

Today, it is a reference point for cyclists and hikers who follow routes such as the Camí de l'Exili or mountain routes in the Bassegoda and Albanyà region. It is known as a landmark on several hiking routes due to its strategic location in the border area. Although it is not a "hostel" in the modern sense, its name retains that historical sense of being a resting place on old trade and transit routes.
