Climb to Puigmal

This is a hard climb that takes us very close to the mythical peak of Puigmal.

We leave Sant Martí d’Aravó and go to France crossing the border in Puigcerdà. We head towards Santa Llocaia and take the road in the direction of the old Puigmal ski resort and until we reach the end of the paved road at 2,283 m. We descend along the same road towards Err and from there we will go to Sallagosa and Llívia and return to the starting point through Càldegas.
