A classic among the people of the area, there are two options for climbing, both of which are very beautiful. One is from Castellbò straight on to the end. The other is to go around Albet, both are great.

Clásico entre la gente de la zona, hay dos opciones para subir ambas son muy guapas. Una es desde Castellbò seguir recto hasta el final. La otra es dando la vuelta por Albet ambas están geniales
