Today I can't get going, and I start the last full day on the HRP rather listlessly.
On the one hand, I just want to finish the crossing now, and on the other hand, I want to continue in this mode for a long time.
Today I'm running almost the entire route on forest roads, ordering a guard dog to give way

I take a lunch break at the Moulin de la Palette, drink my caffeine boost of coffee and cola, let my wet tent dry, and curiously watch the owner preparing/preserving chestnuts for the winter while listening to a podcast. I love participating in everyday situations.

After packing my tent and slinging my backpack, I enter the Refuge Batère after a three-minute hike to drink a hot coffee in the warm living room.
I like the atmosphere here at the refuge so much that I write in my journal until noon, drink several coffees, and listen to jazz music. It's wonderful, such

Today, Pic Canigó is on the agenda – the sacred mountain of the Catalans.
For me, this is the last mountain, after which it's down towards the Mediterranean.
The route is super relaxed, and the last part through the chimney has a real alpine feel, very close to pleasure climbing.

I'm awakened by a spectacular sunrise. I have to preserve moments like these when I'm feeling like I'm going crazy at home.
Shortly after setting off, I cross the unsightly Vallter 2000 ski resort. However, shortly after—you wouldn't believe it—I'm immersed in a landscape that will accompany me all day

Today is my absolute record 🏆
Unfortunately, I mistakenly ended the tour instead of just taking a break...
⬆️ 2185 meters
⬇️ 1526 meters
➡️ 22 kilometers
🔄 9:05 hours
👉🏼 I'm amazed at how great my fitness is right now.
With my headlamp on red mode, I eat my breakfast combo, but this time not with freeze

By 8:30 a.m., there was no sign that a tent had been set up here last night.
I couldn't resist the temptation to have a coffee and something to eat, so I took a long breakfast break at the Hotel Les Bones Hores and treated myself to a delicious and generous sandwich for €4.50.
That did me a world of good

In the morning, the panorama, complete with gift ribbons, more than compensates for the cold night.
After the Coll de Coma d'Anyell, a valley opens up to me, the likes of which I've never seen before in the Pyrenees.
Open, wide, lovely, gently undulating, and on the horizon, my imposing goal for today

It's here!
The last day of my Pyrenees crossing.
In a few hours, I'll be dipping my toes into the Mediterranean.
I was actually able to pack a safe and dry tent 🙏🏼
I eat breakfast on the chalet terrace and set off, still in the light of my headlamp.
Together with Valerie and Cameron, we hike toward the
