오르디노‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪9‬개의 산 정상

Solar viewpoint on the Peyraguils pass or summit, a metal structure that allows a 360° view of the valleys of the Andorran Pyrenees and the Aran Valley, with views of Aneto.

Here again: Someone is rating ALL photos of highlights in this region (Northwest Pyrenees) "not accurate," even though they accurately depict the location? Why does anyone need to do that? Is it jealousy? Does someone want to drag down others' "expert" ratings? How pathetic.

With a bit of luck you can see vultures up here.

Very difficult and dangerous access coming from the Col de la Mina!

It is one of the highest points accessible by mountain bike (MTB) and eBike in Andorra. It is a popular destination among cyclists due to its spectacular surroundings and the challenges offered by the climb. The starting point at the Ordino Arcalís ski resort to the summit of Les Portelles covers approximately 7.5 kilometres. The cumulative positive gradient is significant, reaching 700 metres of vertical ascent from the base of the resort to the summit of Les Portelles, which is around 2,560 metres above sea level. The terrain is varied, combining stretches of asphalt in the first sections with dirt and gravel tracks as you ascend. At some points, the terrain becomes more technical, especially near the summit, where rocks and the incline add difficulty. The climb is considered to be of high difficulty due to the gradient and terrain conditions. It is a demanding route for both MTB cyclists and eBike users, who will enjoy the additional challenge offered by the altitude and changing weather conditions in high mountains.

The structure is designed to mark the hours of sunlight throughout the day, allowing visitors to experience how sunlight interacts with the structure at different times. In short, the Tristaina Solar Viewpoint is a work by Rafael Galindo, built in Corten steel and inaugurated in 2021, which celebrates the sun and its daily journey, offering a unique experience in one of the most impressive natural settings in Andorra.

There are some incredible viewing platforms in Andorra and the huge suspended ring sphere from the Tristaina solar viewpoint near Arcalís is one of them. Offering some of the most spectacular panoramic views of Andorra and the Pyrenees from the summit of Peyreguils at 2701 meters above sea level, on the border with France. There may be some challenging sections, but the views are worth it.

Challenging terrain to reach the top, so you will need the right equipment. The views are spectacular and it is worth the effort to climb to the top if conditions permit.
