REBOST (1640m.)-NIU DE L'ÀLIGA(2510m.)

Positive Denivelation : 880 metres
Hours: 2,30 h

Rebost is the perfect spot to enjoy a magnificient panorama of Alt Bergueda. The building itself has the air of an old farmhouse, and is surrounded by woods of Spanish pine and by alpine meadows.

A well-marked path takes us farther up the mountain on which Rebost is situated, first to Comafloriu and the Serrat Gran and subsequently, following the long-distance path GR150-1, all the way to the top of La Tosa (2.537 m). The landscape is virtually treeless in the latter part of the route.

Niu de l’Aliga, straddling the countries of Bergueda and Cerdanya, is the highest wardened mountain hut in the Pyrenees. From here you see half of Catalonia, from Montseny to Montserrat. Look carefully and you will also spot some of the mammals and birds of the Park: the ever present chamois, marmot, bearded vulture, golden eagle, capercaillie and griffon vulture. With any luck you will be enjoying their company throughout the trek.
