Pic de Sotllo

Access: From Tavascan can climb into the vehicle to track 6 km. To take Montalto. Here a string step size vehicles.

  • Hence, perhaps we can climb up to 4x4 in 40 minutes of the refuge, contact the TNO. 691.87.21.20
  • We can also climb on foot following Route 1 to the track or better to follow the path of 2 by Llurri, in both cases in 3 hours away.


Suggest: It's best to bid on the route 2, since the lakes are not yet glaçats.
It is very interesting for the Canalada rising through the refuge and the next day boarded the peak Flamisella to get off at the source of the Coast and Quanca routes 7 and 8. The simplest is that we bring to taxi to the taking of Montalto. For a minimum of 5 or 6 would take us to 10 euros per person (Taxis Pey 615.59.51.56) and if we want to go back to grades, $ 5 more.

Situation in the area: On the trail of Certascan we can put on your skis or snowshoes until approximately 1 km., Before reaching Canalada.
Above the refuge htrobem an excellent quality of snow by the time (not Blowing dust and Icy).
You can take all routes smoothly over 2,000 meters.
