View of the Lakes in the Catalan Pyrenees

Highlight • Viewpoint

The way to Pic Carlit (2921m) is a poem, but also very rocky and only recommended when visibility is good.

Before starting the last, steeper portion of the climb to Carlit, you have a very nice view of the summit. Take the time to breathe a little while turning around to appreciate the panorama of the lakes below.

Pic de Carlit

Highlight • Summit

The ascent via the "chimney" requires handholding, but it's very gradual and features easy holds.
The one-way descent is much simpler.
