Desolate, wild, desolate, sweltering hot. That is the first description I had in mind when I turned onto the D619 in Catllar. On the whole climb, and until Sournia, 10 km further on, you don't even come across a stable, let alone a house. So, a golden tip : full drinking cans at the start is really no luxury . An informed man is .... worth. On almost the entire climb you have a view of the valley of the Têt and the majestic Pic du Canigou, at 2786 m one of the highest peaks in the Eastern ... read more

Desolaat, woest, verlaten, broeierig heet. Dat is de eerste beschrijving die ik in gedachte had toen ik in Catllar de D619 opdraaide. Op de hele klim, en tot het nog 10 km verder gelegen Sournia kom je niet eens een stal tegen, laat staan een huis. Dus, een gouden tip : volle drinkbussen bij de start is echt geen overbodige luxe . Een verwittigd man is er .... waard. Op bijna de hele klim heb je zicht op de vallei van de Têt en de majestueuze pic du Canigou, met zijn 2786 m. een van de de hoogste toppen in de Oostelijke Pyreneeën.
