Frozen mountain lake

Highlight • Lake

The Ibón (mountain lake) Helado de Monte Perdido is located between the summits of Cilindro and Monte Perdido. It is the lake that is at the highest altitude in the Pyrenees, at almost 3000 meters. Being a lake of glacial origin, for a long time it was not known where the water drained to. The use of fluorescein, an orange-colored organic dye, revealed that the water traveled to the great Gavarnie waterfall through two kilometers of underground tunnels.

La Escupidera

Highlight (Segment) • Climb

The Escupidera section must be overcome regardless of the itinerary you follow to climb Monte Perdido. When there is snow, only people with a lot of experience in the mountains and who know how to use crampons and ice axes can face this step. Inexperienced people should only do this in summer and when the snow is sure to melt. In the Góriz refuge they report on the state of the land at all times.

In the same way, the land without snow is a pedriza with a lot of slope; that is why you have to put all five senses both to go up and down.

Monte Perdido

Highlight • Summit

Monte Perdido is one of the most famous peaks in the Pyrenees, and the third highest after Aneto and Posets. Together with the Cilindro and Añisclo peaks, they form the Tres Sorores, visible from almost anywhere in the surrounding valleys.

La Escupidera

Highlight • Climb

Whether we climb from the north side or from the south, we will have to overcome the section of the Spit:

It usually snows well into summer. Before starting the ascent, you must ask the refuges in the area (Góriz or Pineta) about their condition.
Whenever there is snow on the Spit, INCLUDING IN SUMMER, we will have to carry equipment to progress in snow (axe and crampons) and have fresh skills that allow us to self-stop a fall, since it is our life that is at stake in play Those who do not wear them end up balancing, climbing on stones to avoid the ice, with the consequent risk of accidents.
Once the snow has been removed from the route, L'Escupidera is just a very steep section, sometimes quite uncomfortable to overcome because of the loose pebbles, but no more dangerous.
