It is a magnificent hike on steep paths in the high Pyrenean mountains facing the Mediterranean Sea. This hike is punctuated by 5 refuges and allows you to go around the Massif du Canigó (Canigou) classified Grand Site of France, and the possibility of climbing the Peak (2784 m) at the end of the stay. It offers very wide views of the Mediterranean, from Sète to the Bay of Rosas (Spain, Catalonia), from the Plaine du Roussillon to the Corbières.
It crosses protected natural areas, the PNR of the Catalan Pyrenees, several Nature Reserves, all of which are guaranteed by the very demanding Grand Site de France label.
