We are looking for this place #167

ByTravesía Pirenaica

Let's continue the challenge! Every week we look for a place in the Pyrenees. By observing the photograph and with the help of the clues, are you able to find out which place is the one we are looking for? If you want to take part by sending us a place, you can send us your pictures together with the clues and the solution to the email address travesiapirenaica@gmail.com. Each week we will choose one for publication.

We are looking for this place #167:

We continue this week with another refuge, a very characteristic one, but this time, in the Catalan Pyrenees. Can you guess which one it is? Doesn't it remind you of 4 other refuges very close to us?

Tracks:

  1. Located at an altitude of 2,517 metres, it is one of the highest refuges in the Pyrenees.
  2. It is located in a privileged setting, surrounded by ponds and peaks of around 2,900 metres.
  3. It is at the gateway to the Principality of Andorra.

This week, as I've been working on the micro-story competition, that winter night in this refuge came to my mind, do you recognise it? Nothing special, soup for dinner, a game of cards, laughter, studying the next day's route, silence, time to think, to read, to write... Those things we usually do in refuges, true temples of mountaineering.

Tracks:

  1. It is located in the Chistau valley, in the Posets-Maladeta natural park.
  2. Although it is very close to the track that runs through the valley, its presence goes unnoticed in the middle of the forest.
  3. In March 2023, the 1TP5Dignifiedfreerefugees refurbished this shelter. Great job!
