라로크 데 알베르‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪13‬개의 산길

Beautiful route and a great view

A hill with spectacular views. Several trails depart from here. It's worth taking a detour when descending from Puig Neulós to visit this spot with views on the border between the French eastern Pyrenees and the Catalan Pyrenees.

Really enjoyable ride. Id agree with level 3 for fitness it was a a constant climb altho the gradient ranged from 3,6,8% ( with only less than 100m that went up to 14%. So can be riden at your own pace The Hostel at Las illas after the Col is a slight detour but good for Coffee a beer or a sandwich. Lovely flowing decent, At Maureillas i nearly headed back along the main road but glad i didn't as the last 3rd of the ride has quite a different caricature ( mostly cycle paths)

It is located at an altitude of approximately 936 metres in the Albera mountain range in the Pyrénées-Orientales, France. It is accessible by road via a narrow, paved route, which climbs from Le Boulou and Laroque-des-Albères. The road offers panoramic views as it ascends through the forest.

At the Col de l'Ullat, there is also a refuge that offers basic services for hikers. Surrounded by forests and with panoramic views, it is an ideal place to enjoy nature and explore the region.

very nice to drive with great views

Through the Coll de Banyuls, formerly called the Coll d'Espills, one of the routes that connected southern Catalonia, l'Empordà, with northern Catalonia, el Rosselló, ran. It was one of the three passes, the central one, that the Visigoth king Wamba used to cross the Serra de l'Albera in the direction of Septimania. It went up from the Roussillon coast towards the mountains through the Ravaner valley. To its west, another step was through the Vall de Sant Martí, towards the Torre de la Maçana and the Coll de la Carbassera, and to the east, towards Cotlliure via the Coll de la Farella.

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.
