We completed this route on August 29, 2025, and upon reaching the dolmen, we were unable to continue because the trail was closed. We had to return along the same path we had taken. The return trail was closed because it crossed private property.

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.

Very beautiful but better to visit on foot or with a MTB instead of a gravel bike :-)

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!

The Pave Mill is an old grain mill supplied with water from the village canal. The Pave Mill's activity lasted until the end of the 19th century. It was inhabited until 1942 and then fell into disrepair. It became municipal property and was restored in 2006 by the Laroque Heritage Association in collaboration with the municipality. The volunteers of this association installed a roof to strengthen and “waterproof” the building. The miller's workshop (on the ground floor) and his accommodation (on the upper floor) are currently being completely restored. The association is actively looking for a millstone that could help complete the work.

The Natural Site of National Interest of La Albera, located in the easternmost sector of the Pyrenees, is an area of great natural and cultural value. It stands out for its abundance of megalithic monuments and Romanesque art. The Sierra de la Albera extends along the eastern section of the Pyrenees, from the Pertús pass to the Mediterranean. It is an area of natural and landscape interest of the first order, with areas of lush, ancient and varied vegetation, and ancient buildings and human remains. It separates the two plains of Rosselló and L'Empordà. The highest summits are Monte Neulós (1,257 meters), Monte de los Pastors (1,167 meters), Monte de los Quatre Termes (1,156 meters) and Pico de Sallafort (992 meters). Within the mountain range there are two sectors with special protection as a Natural Area of National Interest: the western one, Requesens-Baussitges, and the eastern one, Sant Quirze de Colera - Balmeta, separated by the area of the Banyuls hill. The territory has a considerable density of megalithic monuments, the highest in Catalonia, with a large number of dolmens and menhirs, such as La Murtra or Pedra Gentil. The heritage of Romanesque art, with a large number of parishes and hermitages, and the monumental Benedictine monastery of Sant Quirze de Colera, a jewel of Catalan Romanesque, currently undergoing restoration, are also noteworthy. At the end of La Jonquera, to the south of Monte Neulós, the Requesens castle stands out among the treetops, which was renovated at the end of the 19th century according to the model of architectural romanticism, which gave it the stamp of a legendary castle and fancy you currently have. It is also worth highlighting the Albera Tortoise Reproduction Center (Centro de Reproducción de Tortugas de l'Albera), located in the sanctuary of the Virgin of the Camp, in Garriguella.

Puig Neulós is the highest point of the Albères massif. It marks the Franco-Spanish border. If we refer to the toponymy, this 1,256 meter summit is often in the clouds. In fact “neulós” means covered in clouds in Catalan.

There are many cork oaks in this section of the hike. The cork oak is a tree found mainly in the western Mediterranean and is known for its bark, which is used as cork. The bark is harvested every nine to twelve years, removing the outer layer to reveal the cork. The bark then grows back and can be harvested again. Cork is used in a variety of products including wine stoppers, flooring and insulation materials. The cork oak is a long-lived tree that can live up to 250 years. It can grow up to 20 meters tall and has a broad, spreading crown. The leaves of the cork oak are evergreen and have a leathery texture. The cork oak is a symbol of sustainability and environmental protection, as its harvest and use help preserve forests and promote biodiversity. It is also an important part of the Mediterranean ecosystem, providing habitat for a wide variety of animal and plant species.
