Beautiful route and a great view

This pass was important as a passage between regions, especially in activities such as transhumance or the transport of goods. The snow wells that give the place its name were also key elements in the economy of the mountainous areas. The term "Pou de la Neu" refers to the snow or ice wells that were traditionally used to store snow during the winter. These structures, dug into the ground or built with stones, served to preserve ice that was later transported to the lower areas for use in food, medicine or food preservation.

The Green MEPs Jordi Solé and François Alfonsi, and the Social Democrat Éric Andrieu, launched a letter to Pedro Sánchez and Emmanuel Macron, presidents of Spain and France respectively, calling for the reopening of the crossings to be discussed at the 27th Franco-Spanish summit on 19 January in Barcelona. The letter, signed by 31 MEPs, was presented at a press conference at the European Parliament in Strasbourg. Two days later, on 20 January, residents of Espolla reopened the coll for the annual Feria de l'Oli y de l'Olivera in the village. However, on 23 January the French authorities closed the crossing again.

very nice to drive with great views

Magnificent view ! It’s worth going up there 🤩🤩

Infernal ascent, when the trees disappear and you seem to be at the top, the pit is waiting for you. Reserve your strength because the last kilometer, despite being on asphalt, is HELL!

From this viewpoint you can see at the bottom an area irrigated by the Orlina River that nourishes about 3000m2 full of centuries-old oaks, ideal for going down and regaining strength. If you look the way you came you will see the Espolla and in the opposite direction the Coll de Bañuls. One km from here you will find a Generalitat farm that is working on the implantation of an extinct species of roof rack.
