I'm Pau, an adventurer from Barcelona, a lover of the Pyrenees. About a year ago, I plunged into the adventure of hiking the GR11, an 833-kilometre trail that crosses the mountain range, sometimes detouring to try to crown mythical peaks like the Aneto, the Perdiguero or the Pica de Estats, although not everything went exactly as I expected\ud83d\ude05...<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table is-style-stripes\"><table class=\"has-theme-palette-7-background-color has-background\"><tbody><tr><td><strong>\ud83c\udfa5<\/strong> <strong><strong><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)\" class=\"has-inline-color has-theme-palette-1-color\">All episodes of the series<\/mark><\/strong><\/strong><\/td><\/tr><tr><td><a href=\"https:\/\/travesiapirenaica.com\/en\/crossing-the-pyrenees-on-foot-in-45-days-gr11-ep-01\/\">Crossing the Pyrenees on foot in 45 days<\/a><strong> | GR11 Ep. 01<\/strong><br><a href=\"https:\/\/travesiapirenaica.com\/en\/crossing-aragon-through-the-pyrenees-gr11-ep-02\/\">Crossing Aragon through the Pyrenees<\/a><strong> | GR11 Ep. 02<\/strong><br><a href=\"https:\/\/travesiapirenaica.com\/en\/the-highest-point-of-the-gr11-gr11-ep-03\/\">The highest point of the GR11<\/a><strong> | GR11 Ep. 03<\/strong><br><a href=\"https:\/\/travesiapirenaica.com\/en\/crossing-catalonia-and-andorra-over-the-pyrenees-gr11-ep-04\/\">Crossing Catalonia and Andorra via the PYRENEES<\/a><strong> | GR11 Ep. 04<\/strong><br><a href=\"https:\/\/travesiapirenaica.com\/en\/crossing-the-pyrenees-on-foot-in-44-days-gr11-ep-05\/\">Crossing the Pyrenees on foot in 44 days<\/a><strong> | GR11 Ep. 05<\/strong><\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p> This challenge turned into a unique 44-day experience, where the red and white waymarks were my constant guide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With the essentials in my backpack, I set off for the mountains with a clear objective: to walk for 40 to 50 days, to discover corners of the mountain range and to camp wherever the night surprised me.
